We have been looking for a supply of goat milk kefir in our area and the only place we have found is Aldi on the way to Torrieveca. Has anyone come across a goats milk kefir locally? We used to make our own in the UK with fresh goats milk but the only goat milk we have found here is UHT which is no good for making kefir. Thought about trying to find a goat farm to see if they would sell to us but again cant see anything on internet search engines that identifies farms around our area. Any help would be much appreciated to save a few miles on our car. Thanks.  John

I'm not aware of anyone in this area, but you could go down to Murcia:

or Callosa:

more results:

For anything like this it's much better to do a Spanish search, and the prime website for less common items is Mil Anuncios.

Thanks Jim didn't think about a Spanish search but having tried them there seems to be only one  company based in Leon Spain and they don't sell the goats milk but do sell goats kefir.  Unfortunately it is not available and would prove expensive after postage added. The other links you sent only offered lechery or water kefir but that's very kind of you to include the7. I think we will go down the fresh goats milk route to make our own as it's a lot cheaper. So the search continues. Thanks again

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions we have now found fresh goats milk here on the urb in the health food shop opposite Consum. Great little shop and very helpful people run it and if they haven't got what you want they will try and order it for you. They have another shop in Alicante apparently.  We tried making kefir with the UHT goats milk from the supermarkets and it worked but not as good as the fresh milk.
