Whether you're a connoisseur or curious about this gourmet item, our collection is sure to intrigue.

Understanding Black Caviar

Black caviar, exclusive to sturgeon roe, is renowned for its unmatched delicacy and nutritional value. The hues of these prized eggs range from deep black to silvery grey, symbolizing their premium quality. The painstakingly long production cycle contributes to its status as one of the culinary world’s most revered treasures.

Identifying Premium Black Caviar

Global Seafoods guarantees the highest quality in our Osetra caviar selection. Identifying a superior caviar involves assessing its tone, texture, and taste - a methodology championed by Chef Daniel Boulud. Quality caviar should be firm yet burst delicately on the tongue, with a clean, unblemished appearance and a taste free of bitterness or excessive saltiness.

Diverse Osetra Caviar Varieties

Our collection includes the finest selections from 7 specific sturgeon species. Notable among these are Sevruga, known for its delicate flavor and small dark grey eggs, and Kaluga, celebrated for its slightly salty, buttery roe. Beluga sturgeon yields large, exquisite roe, while Osetra caviar is famous for its rich, nutty flavor and creamy texture. For those new to caviar, American sturgeon varieties offer an excellent introduction.

Beluga vs Osetra: A Comparative Insight

Both Beluga and Osetra caviars are esteemed, yet they differ in rarity, taste, and price. Beluga, with a slower reproduction cycle, commands a higher price and offers a milder, buttery flavor. Osetra, more robust in flavor, presents a bold culinary experience at a more accessible price point.
