Caviar & Roe Selection
Frequently Asked Questions
Start with Baeri — refined, balanced and approachable. Then explore Oscietra (buttery, nutty depth), Imperial Gold (rich, creamy, golden hue), and Beluga (large, velvety pearls and subtle sweetness)
Caviar is a nutrient-dense delicacy. It’s naturally rich in Omega-3 (EPA/DHA), high-quality protein, and key vitamins and minerals including Vitamin B12 (nervous system & energy), Vitamin D (immune function & bones), Vitamin A & E (antioxidant support), selenium, iodine, choline, and iron. Enjoyed in moderation, these nutrients can support heart, brain, skin, and overall wellness. Note: caviar is non-pasteurized and naturally salty, so moderation is advised; if you have dietary restrictions or are pregnant, please consult your healthcare provider
Serve well-chilled, ideally over ice. Use a mother-of-pearl (or horn/wood/stainless) spoon — never silver. Keep garnishes simple: blinis or lightly buttered toast, a touch of crème fraîche
Chilled vodka is timeless with Oscietra or Imperial Gold. For Baeri or Beluga, choose a lightly dosed Champagne or elegant dry whites (Chablis, Sancerre, Blanc de Blancs). Avoid ultra-austere wines that can overpower caviar
Plan 30–50 g per person for starters/canapés; up to 125 g per person for a main indulgence. For canapés, allow ~5 g per piece (a 125 g tin ≈ 25 canapés)
Unopened: typically 3–4 months refrigerated (check the best-before date). Opened: reseal, refrigerate, and enjoy within 24–48 hours
Yes — BELAEV caviar comes from certified aquaculture, is CITES-certified and fully traceable. We produce fresh, non-pasteurized (malossol) caviar using a no-kill method
Not exactly. Caviar refers to roe from sturgeon, while red caviar (salmon roe) comes from wild or sustainably farmed salmon. Both are delicacies — salmon roe is larger, brighter, and offers a clean, briny-sweet taste
Serve well-chilled, never frozen. Enjoy on warm blinis, buttered toast, baked potatoes or sushi-style dishes, and pair with chilled vodka, dry Prosecco or crisp Champagne
Like sturgeon caviar, salmon roe is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and vitamins A, D, and B12. It supports heart, brain, and skin health while offering a lighter flavour profile and fewer calories than black caviar
