The Wyke Farms Ivy’s Reserve salted farmhouse butter has been added to the UK-based dairy brand's product lineup as a high-quality food item that also features a sustainability perk. The butter has a carbon-neutral profile that follows on the brand's carbon-neutral cheddar cheese from last year and is reported to feature a smooth texture thanks to a gentle churning production. The product is slated to be produced in the brand's new butter dairy facility that opened in March of this year and features state-of-the-art technology including renewable electricity and more.
MD and Third Generation Family Member Rich Clothier commented on the new Wyke Farms Ivy’s Reserve salted farmhouse butter saying, "The world butter market is worth nearly $20 billion and is predicted to grow by 50% by 2027. Increasingly, people across the world are looking for premium dairy products with provenance and history – butter is no exception and Ivy’s Reserve salted farmhouse butter is a best-in-class product in terms of quality and sustainability, and it articulates our unique set of values that fit with this trend."
