Those small nuances speak in flavor of our products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>There are no moles in Saaremaa and Hiiumaa.<\/strong>\u00a0 When hay is cut to make silo on the continent, harvester blades cut close to the ground and because of the presence of mole hills, a little soil inevitably gets mixed in with silo. This includes good and bad bacteria in the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Saaremaa, however, no soil is mixed in with soil, so milk has a purer taste (because animal feed is cleaner).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saaremaa is the Sun Capital of Estonia.<\/strong> According to Statistics Estonia, the sunniest area in Estonia is on S\u00f5rve Peninsula in Saaremaa, where sunshine can be enjoyed for 2,101\u20132,200 hours per year.\r\n\r\n<strong>The northern area of Puhtu-Laelatu Nature Reserve<\/strong> in L\u00e4\u00e4neranna Parish <strong>is the most species-rich wooded meadow in the world.<\/strong> The abundance of species in the nature of the islands and the western coast gives milk its special flavour.\r\nBecause small producers graze their cows on natural grasslands more frequently, their milk has more of that special flavour. In cheese production, the<strong> limestone base<\/strong> in Saaremaa adds to the characteristic by making cheese milk <strong>rich in calcium <\/strong>and promoting milk coagulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Mo Saaremaa &#xD6;ko Mahepiim\" class=\"wp-image-2887\" width=\"768\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Piim3-resized-2-200x200.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Mo Saaremaa \u00d6ko Mahepiim<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Milk produced in Saaremaa is special because of its origin because the abundance of plant species provides the milk with a more abundant flavor bouquet, and this raw material produced naturally and ecologically in a cleaner environment gives milk and added value.saaremaa does not have long distances for transporting milk, and therefore there is no&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5568,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[142],"tags":[69,143],"class_list":["post-3552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-organic-milk","tag-mahepiim","tag-mosaaremaa-en","category-142","description-off"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3552"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3552\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mosaaremaa.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
