Osetra Caviar
A wonderful caviar that starts off very buttery and smoothly transitions to a mild brine on the back end. I always give 4 only because I'm not sure I have ever had anything that is truly perfect but I carry the hope.

I asked for the delivery to occur by Valentine's Day and I provided the gate code and asked that it be left on the side porch, as I've done in the past. The UPS tracking indicates that it would be delivered by Valentine' Day but it did not arrive until the day after. Worse, the box was left at the gate in the pouring rain. It didn't matter because I was out of town so when I returns several days later I discarded the entire package. I know from experience how good the product is but if it can't be delivered reliably, it's not worth the risk at all.
