Beluga Caviar (Grade 000)

This exceptional lightly salted (Malossol) caviar is sourced from sustainably raised purebred Beluga sturgeon (Huso huso) on a U.S. farm. The generous, resilient beads, in shades of medium to light gray, deliver a rich, velvety buttery essence with subtle creamy and nutty notes, culminating in a memorable, lingering depth of flavor.
 
After an absence from the American market since the 2005 import restrictions on wild Beluga products, authentic purebred Beluga caviar has returned, produced domestically by Sturgeon Aquafarms — the nation's sole facility dedicated to cultivating this iconic species.Originating from the Caspian Sea region, Beluga sturgeon yield the biggest and most tender roe among sturgeon varieties, known for their distinctive burst and luxurious texture.
 
The 2005 U.S. prohibition on Beluga imports and caviar stemmed from sharp declines in wild stocks due to overfishing. Beginning operations around that time, Sturgeon Aquafarms in Florida has pioneered the careful breeding of Beluga alongside several other sturgeon types. Following years of dedicated sustainable aquaculture efforts spanning decades, this premium domestic Beluga caviar is now accessible to U.S. consumers.
