CAVIAR

Golden Albinos

Introduction

One of the rarest caviars on the market, the Albino Sterlet Sturgeon (Acipenser ruthenus), produces caviar with yellowish or white pearls. Nicknamed "White Pearl," this supreme caviar is soft to semi-firm and has a similar size to Sevruga, with colors ranging from white to bright gold.

The Sterlet Sturgeon (Acipenser ruthenus) is a relatively small species of sturgeon from Eurasia, much like the Siberian sturgeon in that it is a freshwater species. It is native to large rivers that flow into the Black Sea, Azov Sea, and Caspian Sea. With a maximum weight of approximately 16 kg, it is the smallest of the sturgeon family. Yet, the species delivers excellent caviar, once favored by the Russian Tsars, and is not commonly seen in Western markets. The Golden Albinos Caviar has a distinct flavor, and expect a pronounced rich flavor and a smooth finish with a tinge of citrus at the end. This caviar is produced in very limited supply each month.
