Two Indian dairy products have secured a place on TasteAtlas’ list of the best and most famous butters from around the world, putting Indian brands alongside well-known dairy producers from countries including Denmark, England, Belgium, France and Ireland.
Products from India are GirOrganic’s A2 Gir Cow Ghee and Amul’s Pure Ghee. Both were ranked #6 on the list by TasteAtlas.
TasteAtlas shared the ranking on social media, describing it as a list of “the best and most iconic butters around the world.” The food-focused platform selected products based on factors such as exceptional quality, craftsmanship and premium references.
She also took into account the product’s history, global recognition and cultural significance when determining the list of the best and most famous butters.
What makes them special
GirOrganic A2 Gir Cow Ghee was featured among the products selected from India. The brand is known for its traditional ghee made from the milk of Gir cows and markets its product as authentic, traditionally prepared A2 ghee.
Amul’s Pure Ghee, one of the well-known products of the Indian dairy brand, also made it to the list. Ghee is known for its distinctive aroma and grainy texture, characteristics often associated with traditionally prepared homemade ghee.
