Bendivan village, Susuz, Kars
Bendivan Yöresel Ürünler sells kaşar, gravyer, butter and honey produced in Bendivan, a village in Kars's Susuz district whose Turkish settlement dates back roughly 500 years. Milk comes from cattle on the village's natural pasture and honey from its wildflowers, drawing on the area's high-altitude plant diversity.

Boğatepe village, Kars
Boğatepe Köy Mandırası makes Kars gravyer and kaşar in Boğatepe, a village whose Swiss-introduced cheesemaking tradition has been documented in academic studies of the local economy. The dairy ferments and cellar-ages its wheels before selling gravyer, kaşar, butter and honey straight from the village mandıra.
