Origem Viva makes handcrafted raw milk yogurt in Colos, Alentejo, in small batches, using slow fermentation and traditional methods.

The project

It was born from a fascination with fermented foods and the knowledge carried by old traditions. The name brings together two ideas: Origem (origin), a return to the roots of food and traditional know-how, and Viva (alive), the life and natural character preserved in every jar.

The yogurt is made with fresh milk from the cows and goats of trusted farmers, transformed through carefully controlled fermentation, without pasteurisation, to keep the natural character of the milk.

Every jar has a story

Fresh milk, living cultures, time and care: that is what goes into every jar. As a living food, its texture may vary slightly from season to season.

By choosing Origem Viva, you support small-scale farming and traditional food.
