Dairy · American
A medium-weight dairy product, half-and-half provides a distinct richness due to its fat-compounds. It offers a subtle sweetness balanced by very low levels of sourness and salt. The presence of lactose and casein contributes to a smooth, consistent texture that integrates easily into liquids without curdling at moderate temperatures.
