Two Indian dairy brands have earned a place on TasteAtlas' list of the world's best and most iconic butters. The Indian products featured in the ranking are GirOrganic's A2 Gir Cow Ghee and Amul's Pure Ghee. The list also includes butter producers from countries such as Denmark, England, Belgium, France and Ireland.
According to TasteAtlas, both Indian products were placed at No. 6 on the list. The announcement was shared on Instagram through the platform's official handle with a caption that read, "We selected the Best for exceptional quality, craftsmanship, and premium credentials, and the Iconic for deep history, global recognition, and cultural significance. Sometimes they are different. Sometimes, one extraordinary butter is both."
