Responsible, modern aquaculture practices
About the Sturgeon
Sturgeon are among the oldest living fish species, dating back over 200 million years. These slow-growing freshwater fish are carefully raised over many years to achieve premium caviar quality.
These long growth cycles contribute to the rarity, texture, and flavour of the caviar.
