New Zealand's Red Feather is the world's largest producer of canned butter. Sealed airtight for maximum freshness, Red Feather's canned butter delivers convenience in the form of extended shelf life and easy distribution without the necessity of refrigeration. It has also proven ideal for disaster preparedness, camping, boating and remote areas where refrigeration isn't available. Each can holds 12 ounces of pure creamy butter.
New Zealand's free range farming system allows Red Feather to produce butter of the highest quality. Their production facilities are ISO, GMP and HACCP accredited, and they take great pride in their reputation for the highest quality dairy products.
Shelf Life
How long does it last? Ballantyne, the maker of Red Feather butter, is beginning to sell to some brick-and-mortar stores. To do that, their butter is required to have either an expiration date or best-by date, so Red Feather butter now has an "expiration" date of two years after it was canned. This being said, the butter is made and canned no differently than it was in the past when Ballantyne said the product had a shelf life of “at least” two years, and that statement only reflected the possibility that the can itself could be compromised—which it could, but it won't if it’s stored in a dry place, because it’s a very high quality can. They've also said the butter retains nutritional value well beyond that time frame. In actual practice, countless customers have found the product to be indiscernible from fresh butter after more than a decade of room-temperature storage! Pretty amazing.
