The Oscietra from Sturia is a premium caviar that offers a remarkable experience, consistently delivering high quality and peace of mind.

The Huso Huso (Beluga) sturgeon is silver grey in colour, its skin smooth, and its rostrum conical. It has large eggs (3 to 4 mm) with grey reflections. Today, the average breeding period for this sturgeon is between 15 and 20 years. 

Sturia Beluga caviar is the first 100% French Beluga caviar. Beluga is one of the most prestigious, sought-after, and expensive types of caviar in the world. And for good reason - its exceptional size, colour, and length in the mouth make it truly unique. Sturia Beluga caviar offers a delightful chew with a buttery texture that reveals notes of almond and tonka bean and a tangy finish reminiscent of lime. Its grains are large, with anthracite grey reflections, and its length in the mouth is incomparable.

The traditional way to enjoy caviar is to sprinkle these glistening pearls on blinis with a dollop of crème fraîche. Caviar is delicious on its own, especially Sturia Beluga, which is great with alone with a premium Vodka or Champagne. It also works well with other foods as long as they don’t have overpowering flavours. Potatoes make a perfect neutral vehicle for delivering caviar, and crisps are now often used as an accompaniment.

In the tradition of having caviar alone in a caviar tasting, it's customary to have a second spoonful. The first spoonful allows the palate to acclimate, while the second is where one truly savours this exquisite delicacy's scent, flavour, and texture.

Proper storage is crucial when handling caviar. Your caviar tins should be stored in the coldest section of your refrigerator, typically the bottom shelf. When you're ready to indulge, allow the tin to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before opening it. Once opened, it's best to enjoy the caviar within 2-3 days.

Using a metal spoon to serve caviar is not recommended, as it can alter the taste of the caviar at a chemical level. A mother-of-pearl spoon is an excellent alternative often preferred by caviar enthusiasts. Shop here
