Its a culture and its awesome also known as matsoni or viili, tastes & looks like plain unsweetened yogurt, you put 1cup of it into a jar/jug top it upto a ltr of milk, stir really well and leave on bench or in hot water cupboard overnite and the next morning you have a ltr of yogurt, then you can bung it in the fridge and wait till you get down to the last cupful and start again... we call it neverending yogurt!

I might still have some - I don't like it at all - after paying $18 for it on TM I persisted, but it is more like a drinking yoghurt, very thin and stringy. I much prefer a thick creamy Greek yoghurt.

ill pay you for postage etc Uli, i leave mine in the hot water cupboard and it goes alot thicker, its good & cheap for us as it was being used daily in hubbbys weight gain shakes, do you make your own greek yogurt by culture/starter?

Caspian Sea yoghurt is not viili, viili is a Finnish fermented product, more stringy, more sweeter, has 3 bacteria plus white mould, which grows on the surface. Matsoni is a thermophilic yoghurt made in Georgia which is in the essence the same as Greek yoghurt. Japanese just picked up an idea of yoghurt making and created CSY which only has 2 bacteria and is mesophilic. We have dry sachets of CSY starter from Japan, you can start your very own pure Caspian Sea yoghurt, I sent you an email. Cheers
