While eating breakfast at a hotel in Obihiro, Tokachi, Hokkaido, I was shocked by a yogurt I casually sipped. The name of the yogurt was "De-De-Poppo. Born in the town of Shikaoi in Tokachi, Hokkaido, "De-De-Poppo" is a yogurt filled with the love of the farm, with a rich cream layer and a rich flavor that is full of flavor. In this issue, we will compare and introduce its plain and semi-sweet flavors.

De-dee-poppo" is a yogurt produced by Country Home Landscape, a ranch in Shikaoi, Tokachi, Hokkaido. In 2003, the company began developing yogurt with less acidity using fresh milk, and in 2005, "De-dee-poppo" was born. The name comes from the cooing of mountain pigeons heard as a child on the farm.

When you open the lid, you can smell the original aroma of raw milk and the simple, pure white yogurt. The sweetness and aroma of the cream layer, unique to "ingredient-free, non-homo" yogurt, which is difficult to achieve with mass-produced yogurt, is its greatest feature.

When you taste the "plain flavor," you will be surprised at the richness of the flavor. The distinctive cream layer gives the yogurt a melt-in-your-mouth, natural, deep flavor. The yogurt inside also has a milky flavor that can be felt without adding or subtracting any flavor. There is almost no sourness and you will never get bored of it, so you can eat more and more of it.

Semi-sweet flavor" is a sweet that many people think is delicious on its own. The added sugar is moderate, not too sweet, and not too sour. However, the richness unique to yogurt and the added sweetness are a perfect match, and while you feel like you are eating a luxurious sweet, the aftertaste is refreshing.

It is delicious eaten as is, but we recommend adding honey or blueberries if you like! De-De-Poppo, which you should definitely try, costs 550 yen for 400 grams (including tax) and can be purchased at Country Home Scenery's online store or at stores featuring products from Hokkaido.

This gem, with its delicious ingredients and the kindness and warmth of the people at the ranch, is a best buy if you can find it!
