Kefir - what is it?

It's an ancient fermented or 'cultured' milk drink, that originates many years ago from the Caucasus mountains where the bacteria (or cultures) are thought to have evolved into being/ were discovered.   Traditionally kefir is a drink with the consistency of drinking yoghurt, with a creamy, refreshing taste that's slightly sour and the hint of a fizz that adds to its uniqueness.

At Nourish we make this original kefir in the authentic way; fermenting kefir grains in either fresh organic cow's milk, or fresh whole goats milk in 250ml and 500ml sizes!  We also make vanilla kefir with no added sugar, plus starter cultures - so you can make your own at home!

What Are Kefir Grains?

Grains are unique living colonies of many micro-organisms;  a perfect symbiosis of bacteria and yeast that form a polysaccharide complex structure giving them their shape - so we can see and hold them.  They look like small pieces of cauliflower and feel spongy to touch.

Kefir grains grow best in fresh whole milk such as organic cow's or fresh goats milk, where they multiply and transform the milk into a thicker consistency and different taste.

Kefir grains are a natural wonder and cannot be man made.

Who Are We?

We are a family business.  We make kefir because our founder Deborah, healed her gut of 10 years of Crohn's disease after drinking kefir she made at home.  So profound was this healing that she thought: if kefir can help me, it can help others!  

To begin, we imported authentic kefir from Slovenia, then in 2009 we learned how to produce authentic kefir, with actual grains, on a large scale.  Today you'll find us in South Croydon, where we grow our cultures and produce all our drinks.

We care about our customers and are proud to have made a difference to thousands of people over the years.  We are passionate about our drinks and always want the very best kefir for you!  We're not the biggest, you won't find us in supermarkets, but in smaller independent shops and online.
