Golden Oscietra Special Reserve

Rich and buttery, with warm toasted-hazelnut tones, luminous golden depth and refined mineral elegance, finishing long and supple. Crafted for refined palates.

Golden Oscietra Special Reserve is the most prestigious expression of Oscietra. Long associated with the royal tables of Persia, where it was known as the Shah's Caviar. The grade is named for the rare luminous gold of its pearls, a colour that appears only in the oldest sturgeon, after twelve to fifteen years of slow maturation.

Each pearl is medium-to-large, between 2.7 and 3.0 millimetres, with a luminous light-gold to golden-amber sheen that distinguishes it from standard Oscietra. The Acipenser gueldenstaedtii sturgeon is raised in certified aquaculture across China, France, Poland and Italy. Only the most mature fish produce the gold-graded roe. Selection is by hand, and the yield from each batch is small.

On the spoon, Golden Oscietra opens with refined buttery weight and a quiet mineral note. The mid-palate brings toasted hazelnut and a soft elegant salinity. The finish is long and polished, with a gentle golden richness that lingers without insistence. The texture is velvety and supple. The pearl gives without breaking.

Within the BELEAEV collection, Golden Oscietra Special Reserve sits one step above Royal Osetra. Choose it when the occasion calls for visible rarity. When the colour of the caviar is part of the moment, and when the most discerning guest will recognise the difference at first glance.
