Calvisius Caviar Siberian Classic

Caviar from the Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii), from Italian aquaculture.

Siberian Classic is a caviar that is obtained from the Siberian sturgeon. A medium-sized fish weighing between 8 and 40 kg, which originally occurs in the river basins of Siberia (from the Ob to the Kolyma) and in Lake Baikal. This caviar has a strong character and is very versatile in the kitchen.

The size of the egg varies depending on the age of the sturgeon (2.5 to 3 mm) and its colour ranges from grey to amber. It goes well with potatoes, sour cream, crème fraîche, soft bread or, in the most traditional Russian way, with blinis. Recommended combinations: Brut champagne or dry white wines, mineral wines and vodka. The harvest time for this caviar is 8 years.
