Berchtesgadener Land Skyr

Berchtesgadener Land Skyr is produced by the Milchwerke Berchtesgadener Land Chiemgau eG, a dairy cooperative based in Piding, Germany. The brand is renowned for its commitment to high-quality alpine milk sourced from the regions between the Watzmann mountain and Lake Chiemsee. Being a cooperative, the brand is owned by the approximately 1,600 local mountain and valley farmers who supply the milk, ensuring that the value remains within the regional agricultural community.

Manufactured primarily at their headquarters in Bavaria, this Skyr follows traditional Icelandic-style recipes but utilizes the distinct milk characteristic of the Berchtesgaden Alps. The Milchwerke Berchtesgadener Land was the first dairy in Germany to be Naturland Fair certified, highlighting their focus on social responsibility, animal welfare, and organic production standards. Their Skyr product line is part of a broader strategy to provide high-protein, low-fat dairy options to health-conscious consumers while maintaining traditional farming roots.
