Ancient
Organics Peter Malakoff and Gilda Madrigal began to make Ghee about six years ago while they were studying to become practitioners of Ayurveda. Within the ancient tradition of Ayurveda, ghee is used so widely and praised so highly that they just had to make it for themselves. Over time, after discovering the exquisite quality of their local Straus Butter and getting requests from friends for more of their product, they began Ancient Organics to offer ghee to the public. In accord with the ancient tradition of India, they only make their ghee on the full or waxing moons. Ancient Organics Ghee has been rated #1 nationwide on an independent website. It is sold in local northern California stores and shipped worldwide.
