Tsar Nicoulai Estate Caviar

Read Reviews Q & A

Summary

Tsar Nicoulai produces top-quality, sustainably raised caviar at its aquafarm in California’s Central Valley. Unlike other producers, they do not mix eggs from different fish; each jar contains eggs from a single sturgeon, packed at the time of order, and preserved only with salt. Their Estate caviar features a medium-size egg with lustrous brown-black color, a fresh flavor and smooth, buttery finish. Served on fresh blini with a dollop of tangy crème fraîche and paired with a crisp sparkling wine, it’s a mouthful of luxury in each bite.

Use & Care

Receiving instructions

• The caviar ships fresh with gel packs. Upon receipt, remove the jars from the carton and immediately place in refrigerator. Place an ice-filled plastic bag over the jars to ensure that the optimal temperature (28º-32ºF) is reached. The gel packs in which the caviar was shipped may be refrozen and alternated with ice, which needs to be replaced once it has melted. When serving caviar, never use metal utensils as the alloys change the taste of the product. Non-reactive materials include glass, mother of pearl, wood and plastic. When stored as described above, the caviar will keep, unopened, 5 to 6 weeks; opened, 3 days.

Ingredients

• Caviar, salt.
