Sturia Oscietra Caviar - 50g

Sturia is the flagship of France's premier caviar producer, with an annual production of 12 tonnes across diverse caviar varieties. Pioneering sturgeon farming in France, their facilities nestle near Bordeaux at the Garonne estuary, where naturally filtered, oxygenated river water blends with Atlantic salt water in pristine pond ecosystems. Here, sturgeon thrive with ample space for optimal growth and development. When female sturgeon reach 10-12 years, ecography confirms peak maturity for the finest harvest. Grains are meticulously sorted by size and colour before resting in 1kg tins with minimal salt in temperature-controlled cellars (-2°C) for three months' careful curing. Species: Gueldenstaedtii. Tasting notes: This sensual caviar unveils delicate marine flavours with dried fruit undertones. The golden-hued grains remain firm on the palate, progressively releasing their refined, lingering aroma with each bite.
