The Russian word "ocetp" translates to the English word "sturgeon." In its native habitat, the prized Osetra sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii) were facing extinction and were classified as endangered in 1996. To protect the wild population, Osetra sturgeon are now sustainably farmed around the world. The Caviar Galilee Company, now Karat Caviar, is one of the longest-running fish farms on the Kibbutz Dan in Israel and in the world. With pristine spring fed ponds boasting a constant flow rate and optimal year-round temperature, the caviar Karat produces is admired world-wide for its impeccable quality. Using water from the nearby Dan River, this true Osetra caviar is raised from Russian brood stock and embodies all the same qualities as the coveted wild "Royal" Osetra. Each tin of this ecologically-friendly caviar is handpicked and graded extensively, quickly becoming a fan favorite.

Buttery so delish
I've ordered the Israeli Osetra several times now and have not been disappointed. Certainly recommended.
I am a repeat customer. Every year I order for our New Years celebration and am always delighted by the quality if the caviar, blinis, and smoked salmon. Deliver is fast and service is excellent.
Wonderful flavor and a bit of a softer texture.
