![]()  Considered the most
flavorful and elite caviar by critics, Ossetra
(often spelled Asetra or Osetra Caviar) is one of the most desired
types of caviar in the world.
It can look, smell, and taste a
little different each time you try it due to abundant varieties (see
below). Generally nutty and buttery in taste, the savory roe ranges in
color from deep black to light gold and almost white. The texture of
Caspian Osetra caviar tends to be a bit firmer than other types of caviar, yet
still delicate.
The Ossetra sturgeon fish, found mainly in the Caspian Sea, is
usually harvested in Iran or Russia. The sturgeon reaches maturity at
around age 15, but can live up to eighty years. Although they are
generally smaller than Beluga sturgeon, Ossetra sturgeon can weigh
anywhere between 50-400 pounds. Experts conclude that the variations in
taste occur because the Ossetra is a bottom-feeder; thus, its eggs
acquire the flavor of what the fish eats, which may vary based on time
of year, weather, and other environmental factors.
Our
Russian Ossetra features a sizeable roe which is slightly darker than
the Iranian Ossetra with a pewter-gray color. With a nutty, light salt
flavor, the Russian Caspian Osetra Caviar rolls smoothly over the tongue as it is
buttery in taste and texture.
