Would you ever consider giving goat milk another try? I purchased it once from the grocer and it was absolutely terrible (very goaty indeed). But, the milk straight from our goats has always been a very different matter. So many variables can affect the taste of milk - crowded or dirty conditions, diet, and the location of the buck (a buck kept too near can certainly taint the milk) among other things. See, even the goats agree (it looks like you have to click on the photos to get the full caption):
We also have used the milk to make a good soap.
