beluga caviar

Caspian luxury eggs

Beluga caviar is the roe of the beluga sturgeon, considered the most prized and expensive caviar in the world.

The eggs are large, pale gray to black, with a rich, buttery flavor and delicate texture.

Beluga sturgeon are native to the Caspian and Black Seas, and overfishing has made genuine beluga caviar increasingly rare and subject to import restrictions: A single ounce of beluga caviar can cost hundreds of dollars.
