FAQ
Our expert answers your questions
Is Oscietra a good choice for discovering caviar?
Yes, it is one of our first recommendations for a first tasting. The aromatic profile of Oscietra (hazelnut notes, a balance between brine and butter) is immediately identifiable and accessible, while offering a complexity that opens into the wider world of caviar. It is an excellent entry point.
How long does an Oscietra need to mature?
Acipenser Gueldenstaedtii reaches full maturity between 10 and 15 years of farming. It is the work of time that gives the pearl its characteristic signature.
Caviar House Oscietra
The pearls of Finest Caviar Oscietra by Caviar House, of variable size and pale golden colour, are one of the visual signatures of the species. Their firm texture resists gently at the start of the tasting, before the aromas are released gradually on the palate.
On tasting, Oscietra unfolds its hazelnut and buttery notes in a subtle balance between intensity and softness. The aromatic complexity reveals itself gradually, from the frank briny hit through to the hazelnut finish that extends the experience.
Like every caviar in our range since 1950, Finest Caviar Oscietra is sourced from partner farms chosen for their exacting standards and their respect for the product.
