Acipenser Gueldenstaedtii
The female Caspian Sea Osetra sturgeon is smaller than the Beluga, requiring up to ten years to mature and produce eggs, reaching lengths of up to seven feet and weighing from fifty to two hundred pounds.
Caspian Osetra offer a medium to large grain caviar that may be light to dark brown in color often with golden highlights, and sometimes although rare even jet black.

Sevruga Caviar
Acipenser stellatus
The female Sevruga sturgeon, also known as the Stellate or Star Sturgeon, inhabits the Caspian Sea in the wild, predominately spawning to the Volga and Ural rivers. Sevruga has been traditionally known to be the most common of the commercial sturgeon species of the Caspian, and yet least common produced by aquaculture.
Sevruga are generally smaller and mature earlier than the Osetra after only 7 years, and given their early maturation, they have in past been the most plentiful of wild stocks.
Sevruga in the wild may grow to lengths of up to 5 feet and at a weight of close to 150 lbs. They are most distinguished by their long snout and elongated form.
Sevruga caviar is of a small grain that is sometimes light in color but most often dark grey and is very flavorful, offering an abundantly rich profile with excellent balance and finish. The eggs of the Sevruga are a wonderful treat when available.

Beluga Caviar
Huso Huso
The female beluga sturgeon takes up to twenty-five years to mature and produce eggs. Beluga caviar is the largest-grain caviar and varies in color from light to dark gray. These Beluga pearls are the most delicate and have a mild buttery flavor.
Beluga was banned from further import to the United States, as of fall 2005. For those who prefer the inherent mild buttery richness of Beluga Malossol caviar, we suggest the extremely rare Platinum Osetra caviar.

Pressed Caviar
Acipenser spp Caviar which is judged unsuitable to be served as whole-grain (or zernistaya) becomes the perfect candidate for pressed caviar. Through a gentle curing and pressing process, pressed caviar achieves a highly concentrated consistency, suitable for slicing and spreading. Historically known as payusnaya, pressed caviar provided the alternative to czarist ice-block storage in times before refrigeration, and continues to be sought after by those who prize its unique, intense flavor.

North American Sturgeon
The Pacific sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus is most commonly indigenous to the Northern Pacific Coast, and most prevalent in the Snake, Sacramento, Columbia, and Willamette Rivers. The Pacific sturgeon is considered the largest of all the domestic sturgeon, weighing as much as a thousand pounds in the wild, with the female maturing at age 10 or 11. The caviar derived from the transmontanus overall is medium to large in grain, light grey to black in complexion, and generally very mild in flavor.
Shovelnose (Scaphirhynchus plantorhynchus), also known as hackleback, are the smallest domestic sturgeon, reaching upwards of about one meter. They are mostly populated in the midwest of the United States. The shovelnose weigh up to twenty-five pounds, and the female begins to produce caviar around the age of seven, offering a small- to mid-sized, rich and flavorful sturgeon caviar.

Caviar Accessories
Caviar Servers
The world’s most precious delicacy deserves equally unique serving pieces. Caviar Russe presentoirs elevate the overall caviar experience, further enhancing any celebration.
Mother of Pearl
Only the finest mother of pearl shells are selected to be handcrafted for Caviar Russe. These unique pieces are individually cut, shaped and polished to a brilliant finish, to reveal the inherent pearlescent luster, offering a truly unique and most special serving piece to be used time and time again.
Traditionally, caviar has been best served using instruments crafted from bone, horn or shell, as serving pieces made of sterling silver, albeit beautiful, often cause a chemical reaction with the caviar, imparting a metallic flavor and tarnishing the silver instrument and the the caviar experience.
Hence, true caviar aficionados opt for an alternate to silver serving pieces in favor of mother of pearl.
