Beluga Caviar


Beluga (Huso huso) is the largest Sturgeon and the only predator in the Sturgeon family. An extremely rare fish found only in the Caspian and Black Seas whose catch does not exceed 100 units per year. Due to the immense size of the fish its roe granules are also generally the biggest. Its black caviar is highly valued due to the large granule size, their coarse texture, and their exotic and distinctive flavor. True Beluga (Huso huso) caviar has been banned from being imported into the United States since 2005 and there has been a lot of misleading information of what is being sold as Beluga caviar. We won't go too deep into the history and definition of Beluga caviar here, but a quick overview should shed enough light to be able to make an informed purchase. All of the Beluga caviar sold at Caviar Malosol is ethically sourced and of the highest quality at very reasonable prices.

The Unique Flavors of Hybrid Beluga Caviars

Beluga Sturgeon Malossol Black Caviar features one of the most delicate tastes caviar has to offer. This caviar has a beautiful chocolate brown color with large, firm roe. This type of caviar is one of the most popular caviar amongst chefs around the world, with a great balance of saltiness, creaminess, and toasted hazelnut-like flavor. Its taste is closest to the world-famous now critically endangered wild Beluga caviar from the Caspian Sea.

For those seeking premium caviar at a reasonable cost, the River Beluga Sturgeon Malossol Black Caviar (Kaluga Hybrid) is a fantastic option. Its huge grains come in a variety of colors, from dark amber to chocolate brown. This caviar has a buttery, delicate flavor with a sweet and salty finish.

The River Beluga Gold Sturgeon Malossol Black Caviar (Kaluga) has huge grains with beautiful vibrant gold to chocolate brown color. In addition to being large in size and light in color, the flavor of this Kaluga Hybrid caviar is incredibly buttery, delicate, and has a faint sea flavor which makes it a perfect substitute for the banned Caspian Beluga Caviar.

Serving Suggestions

  • (Solo/Alone on a special dish) On a spoon - Caviar is usually served solo, staying cold on a bed of ice. It is best enjoyed with a special spoon made of bone or mother of pearl, as metal utensils are said to change the flavor. It is recommended to take small bites to fully savor and enjoy the flavor. 
  • As an appetizer - Caviar is primarily eaten as a starter, usually accompanied by neutral-tasting food such as buttered toast points. It can also be consumed in a blini, a Russian-style pancake, and can be combined with sour cream.
  • Paired - When combining caviar with other ingredients, the flavor and texture of the eggs should be the star of the dish. A touch of crème fraîche can add a smooth contrast to the distinct flavor of the caviar.

In conclusion, Hybrid Beluga caviar is an incredibly rare and luxurious delicacy that commands high prices due to its rarity, flavor, texture, and status as a luxury item. It is a sought-after delicacy that is sure to impress even the most discerning caviar connoisseur.

Why Can’t We Sell Wild Beluga Caviar?

Beluga caviar is considered one of the finest delicacies in the world, but its sustainability is a major concern. In order to protect the beluga sturgeon’s population, which is a critically endangered species, it is important to minimize the human impact on their population. By selling hybrid beluga caviar, we are able to reduce our impact on the species and help ensure its conservation.

Hybrid beluga caviar is a combination of two different species of sturgeon, and it is not as rare or expensive as wild beluga caviar. This means that it is more sustainable, as it does not rely on the same resources as pure beluga caviar. Hybrid caviar is also more widely available, as it does not require the same level of care and attention as pure beluga caviar.

The quality of hybrid beluga caviar is also comparable to pure beluga caviar, so customers can still enjoy the same exquisite flavor. Furthermore, purchasing hybrid beluga caviar can help support sustainable fishing practices and promote conservation efforts.

At our store, we believe that sustainable practices are the best way to protect the environment and the species we rely on. By selling hybrid beluga caviar instead of pure beluga caviar, we are doing our part to protect these precious species and ensure their long-term survival.
