Description
Oscietra comes from the sturgeon species Acipenser gueldenstaedtii (Russian sturgeon) and is one of the most valued caviar in the world. It has compact, springy roe beads with a smooth and velvety consistency. It is characterized by a creamy taste, with hints of umami, nuts and butter, balanced with a delicate saltiness.
Oscietra melts in the mouth with an unmatched finish on the palate, gradually releasing a complex and refined palette of sensations. Its taste is considered delicate and elegant, yet saturated, rich and expressive. Among our Oscietras the 5-star Oscietra has medium-sized roe beads. They range in diameter from 2.9 to 3 mm, with colours varying between grey, brown and olive green with golden highlights.
