About Calpis Specially Selected Butter

  • This butter is made from cream, a byproduct created when milk fat is separated from raw milk during the production of the lactic acid bacteria drink Calpis
  • Producing a single 450g block requires the raw milk needed to make about 35 bottles of Calpis, making it a rare butter known as "the phantom butter"
  • It has a deep richness, a smooth melt-in-the-mouth quality, and a rich, creamy flavor
