What Defines the Finest Caviar?Discovering the finest caviar is a journey through taste, where personal preference reigns supreme. While some aficionados are drawn to the robust flavors of Ossetra or the delicate nuances of Sevruga, others may find the rich, creamy finish of Kaluga-Huso Hybrid irresistible. The journey to uncovering the finest caviar begins with sampling a variety of types, each offering a unique sensory experience that can captivate and delight the palate.
-
What Distinguishes Each Caviar Type?The essence of caviar lies in its origin – the sturgeon species from which it is harvested. Each species, like the varied grapes of a vineyard, produces caviar with distinct flavors, textures, and characteristics. Ossetra and Sevruga, for example, each tell their own story through their unique taste profiles. To fully appreciate caviar's depth, one should explore the different types, akin to savoring a selection of fine wines, to unearth the flavors that resonate most personally.

How is Caviar Prepared?The journey of caviar from egg to tin is one of patience and expertise. Harvested at the peak of maturity, the eggs undergo the Malossol method – a light salting process that enhances their natural flavors. Maturation in 'mother tins' allows each batch to develop its distinctive taste and texture, creating the exquisite caviar experience that our brand is known for.
