Yak butter was a soft cream cheese made from the milk of a yak. It was made in the Spine of the World, Khazari, the Hordelands[1] and the Land of the Yak-Men.[2]

Description[]

It was a mild and delicate cheese but had a more characterful flavor than a typical cream cheese. The best yak butter was made in the spring after the first major thaw.[1]

Usages[]

Yak butter was used as an ingredient in butter tea.[3]

Prices[]

As of 1368 DR, a 1 pound (0.45 kilograms) tub was available for around four silver pieces, whereas a 100 pounds (45 kilograms) tub was about 35 gold pieces.[1]
