Q. Why is Anveshan Desi Cow Ghee costly as compared to other ghee?

A. Anveshan A2 Desi Cow Ghee is made entirely from the milk extracted from desi cows. The indigenous cow gives around 2-3 litres of milk per day which is more nutritious than foreign breeds that produce more milk. The cows are neither forced nor injected with hormones to enhance milk production. Our ghee is bi-directionally bilona churned with a wooden churner. This is why our A2 cow ghee has a grainy ure thicker consistency tempting aroma superior flavour and is much healthier. Hence A2 Desi Cow Ghee is costlier and better than regular ghee.

A. The consistency of pure A2 ghee varies with temperature. It should be grainy and thick at room temperature.
