The quality of farm-raised caviar has progressed tremendously over recent years, and Americans are not disappointing. Farm raised in Central Valley of California, the California White Sturgeon produces caviar that has a glossy oceanic texture which is near-black in color.

The generous sized roe of the California White Sturgeon, acipenser transmounatus, has a light nutty taste that is strikingly similar to that of the Russian Grade Ossetra caviar. By maintaining the sturgeons diet in a controlled environment, each serving is guaranteed to delight with a fresh, creamy flavor.

Naturally, the White Sturgeon lives along the west coast of North America from the Aleutian Islands to Central California. White Sturgeon can live to be over 100 years old, with the rate of growth dependent on water temperature. Maturity is reached at eight years old, at which time the sturgeon will begin to produce roe. The California White Sturgeon is the largest fresh water fish in North America, with a maximum-recorded weight of 1,798 pounds and over 20 feet in length.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much caviar should I order?

For an appetizer, we recommend approximately ½–1 oz per person. If caviar is one of several bites being served, you can plan for a little less.

Quick guide:
2 people → 1–2 oz
4 people → 2–4.5 oz
6–8 people → 4.5–8 oz

When in doubt, a little extra caviar is rarely a bad idea.

How should I serve it?

Keep your caviar well chilled until serving and place the tin over ice once opened.

For the purest experience, enjoy it directly from a mother-of-pearl spoon or serve simply with blini, toast points, or your favorite accompaniments.

What should I pair with it?

California White Sturgeon is beautifully versatile. Its creamy, lightly nutty character pairs especially well with:

  • Blini
  • Crème fraîche
  • Toast points
  • Potato
  • Egg
  • Champagne or sparkling wine

Keep the accompaniments simple so the caviar remains the star.

How should I store it?

Keep unopened caviar refrigerated in the coldest part of your refrigerator until you are ready to serve it.

Once opened, keep it chilled, cover it carefully, and enjoy it as soon as possible for the best flavor and texture.

When will my order arrive?

Caviar Express ships caviar by next-day air delivery so it arrives cold and fresh.

Orders placed before the shipping cutoff are generally scheduled to arrive the next business day. Your caviar is carefully packed with cold materials to protect it throughout transit.
