What is "Lattella natur" and where does it come from?
Lattella natur is a refreshing whey drink. Whey is the thin, clear liquid that remains when cheese is made from milk. You can think of whey like the water that stays after wringing out a wet sponge: it is light, still contains proteins and minerals, and is processed into beverages. Lattella itself has its origins in dairy processing in Central Europe – especially in regions where many cows are kept and dairy products are produced.

Origin and production
The main ingredient of Lattella natur is therefore whey, supplied by dairy farmers. These farmers often come from rural and mountainous areas where cows graze on meadows. Many producers rely on fresh milk from regional farms because short transport distances and fresh raw materials are important. In a dairy plant the whey is cleaned, sometimes gently heated, supplemented with minerals or natural flavor and then bottled. This is called processing. You can think of it like cooking: the farmer delivers the milk, the dairy plant turns it into a finished drink that we can buy in the supermarket.
