OUR manufacturing process
Step 1: Fresh Milk Collection
Every morning, fresh yak and cow milk is collected from free-roaming yaks and cows in the Himalayan highlands. These animals graze on wild grasses and medicinal herbs, making their milk rich in nutrients and protein.
Step 2: Heating & Stirring
The fresh milk is poured into large kettles and heated over a wood fire. Constant stirring ensures an even consistency while bringing out the natural flavors.
Step 3: Curdling with Lime Juice & Salt 🍋🧂
A small amount of lime juice and Himalayan salt is added to the milk, causing it to curdle naturally. This is a key step that turns the milk into thick cheese.
Step 4: Pressing & Shaping 📏
The cheese is poured into handmade molds, then tightly pressed to remove excess moisture. This gives the yak chew its signature firm texture and shape.
Step 5: Drying & Smoking
The pressed cheese blocks are dried and smoked for several weeks in special drying rooms. This process removes all moisture, hardens the chew, and enhances its natural flavor.
Step 6: Hand-Cutting & Quality Check
Once dried, each chew is hand-cut into different sizes and checked for quality, consistency, and safety—ensuring they’re perfect for dogs of all sizes!
