Sprouting from the vegan AND paleo movements, Culina Botanical Yogurt is dairy-free, made with simple ingredients, and packaged in an actual flowerpot. It’s a “craft-fermented” line of coconut yogurt with a low sugar, no funny business label that is sure to attract food purists.
Culina Botanical Yogurt Plants Itself in the Healthy Dairy Alternative Market
This rich dairy-free yogurt isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s super-thick consistency attempts to rival the mouthfeel and versatility of Greek yogurt. But it is much higher in fat (from the coconut base) and very low in protein. Nonetheless, it’s cultured with live and active probiotics and is very modest in sugars.

Deliciously different!
I just had the mango orange blossom probiotic yogurt – wonderful consistency, very much like Greek yogurt, and a haunting, subtle taste of orange blossoms with an undertone of mango. Sweetened with maple syrup, and not overly sweet to boot. I will definitely buy it again, and look for the other flavors!!!
Delicious beyond belief - But TOO expensive
Flavor and texture is superb, just right amount of tart sweetness. Hard to have just one, they are small, too.
For Kathy
Hi! You aren’t the first to mention this to me… but, I haven’t noticed a change! I only eat the plain… have you tried that one? I think I’ll pick up another flavor tomorrow to see if I see a difference… I am intrigued since I’ve heard this from a few people.
Bait and switch
They started out with a great creamy thick yogurt. I have 2 brown bags of little bottles I saved to use for other things. That’s how much I. Loved it…they now changed it to some whipped up fluff that’s totally different…trying to get the same price at co op I shop at…not happening ..no one’s buying it, not even at the sale price…change it back and I’ll buy again.ruined a good thing. 🙁
PURE LOVE!!!
I LOVE every single flavor! My husband and I went vegan about a year ago and one of the things I missed the most was thick Greek yogurt. Well, not anymore! This yogurt is absolutely AMAZING!!!
So, So, So Good!
I recently tried the Strawberry- and it was so good. Five Stars! I also like the blueberry and the plain. I wonder if it ok to eat this every day?
I love this stuff
I love the clean list of ingredients and the taste of this yogurt. They are so expensive I usually eat half a jar at a time.
Culina Yogurt is my absolute favorite
This is the only yogurt I will eat. I love the flavors,the low sugar cotent(from maple syrup, not cane sugar) the consistency, the fact that it comes in jars and is a woman owned company. Being lactose intolerant is no joke, so Culina yogurt is the perfect fit for me. I love it for breakfast or a snack with some Natural Grocers Organic Margaret’s Trail Mix. Yum!
Thank you for making this yogurt
I am a plant-based eater and have eaten Coconut Collaboratives non-dairy yogurt as I LOVE it. Unfortunately, they stopped making it in US due to a lack of sales. I virtually panicked and was trying to figure out how to get their product shipped from the UK as most non-dairy yogurts are too sour for my taste. Once I settled down, I looked online for other coconut brands and found Culina at my local Whole Foods. I just had my first one, blueberry lavender, and LOVE it. I found my replacement. Thank you!
I LOVE this yogurt!!!
I have been dairy free for 10 years and AIP for 2. I was ecstatic to find an AIP yogurt AND it is the best dairy free yogurt I have ever had. I just can’t believe how good this stuff is. If it were less expensive, I would eat it every day.
