Description

This pure Osetra caviar is produced by the eggs of the Russian sturgeon Acipenser gueldenstaedtii at one of the original caviar farms known for Osetra--Caviar Galilee, now Karat Caviar. With medium-sized pearls and a brilliant appearance ranging from dark to light bronze, this Caspian classic has a pronounced buttery profile with a pleasingly nutty finish. Rich and clean, a continual favorite for caviar lovers around the globe.

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. Hand-packed to order & quality-checked for color, size, freshness, flavor and texture. View our Policy Page for additional shipping, use, and privacy information.
