Traditional jar of Matsoni (Georgia)

Matzoon (matsoon, matsoun,matzoun, madzoon, madzoun macun, matson, matsoni) ([[[wikt:մածուն|մածուն]] macun] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help), Georgian: მაწონი mats'oni) is a fermented milk product found in Caucasian cuisine, of Georgian origin.[1][2][3] It is very similar to yogurt.

It is made with Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus lactic acid bacteria.[4]

Matsoni is made from cow's milk (mostly), goat's milk, sheep's milk, or a mix of them and a culture from previous productions.

In Japan, Caspian Sea Yogurt (カスピ海ヨーグルト) is popular; soy milk is sometimes added to the milk.
