Caviar

Beluga (Huso Huso)

Considered to be the King of caviars, Beluga has the largest egg size and is steely grey in colour with a flavour of walnuts & cream with a hint of the sea and salt. Farmed in Bulgaria.

Oscietra (Gueldenstaedtii)

It has a nutty, mellow taste which develops into a buttery sweetness, similar to lobster and in colour is golden brown to slate. Farmed in Belgian.

Siberian Sturgeon (Baerii)

A delicate egg with a long hazelnut flavour on the palate and the colour ranges from grey to golden brown and similar to Oscietra. Farmed in Belgian.

Naccarii

A nutty salty sea taste with low acidity, is dark grey in colour and similar to Servuga. Farmed in Spain.

Sterling Caviar Transmontanus (White sturgeon)

This farmed white sturgeon, native to California, is produced by the first sustainable caviar pioneer, Sterling Caviar. In the last 20 year’s this elegant caviar first evokes the taste of Oscietra, with a nutty and buttery flavour that’s smooth and robust.

All produced under CITES Accreditation CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species)

All our caviar is supplied under CITES and organisation that regulates international trade in species which are endangered or which may become endangered if their exploitation is not controlled.

Explanation of CITES label?

Beluga must start with Hus (Huso, Huso which is the Latin name for the Beluga). It is then followed by CITES code. If for example it said Beluga on the front of the tin but the Cites label on the back began with GUE it would be Oscietra so a much cheaper product.

HUS/C/BG/2013/GB0001/1130

What does this mean?

  • HUS = Latin Name
  • C = Captive (if wild it would be a W)
  • BG = Country of origin ie Bulgaria
  • GB0001 = Kings packing number
  • 1130 = Kings cites tracking number

Serving Tips / Suggestions

  • Caviar is best served as simple as possible - using mother of pearl or gold
  • Blinis, salmon, new potatoes, creme fraiche, french bread ideal compliments
  • To drink champagne and vodka
  • Chopped onions and lemon juice disguise the taste of caviar, so these are not recommened
  • To taste caviar
    • We always taste caviar on the back of our hand between the thumb and forefinger.
    • Let it rest for a few seconds and then taste by gentle rolling round your mouth.
    • The caviar will be very soft on the palette.
    • Some will say the sexist way to eat caviar is off someone else's hand!!
    • Caviar should not pop in the mouth - this only happens with caviar that has been pasteurized which firms up the egg and gives caviar an ambient shelf life.
    • Not something we recommend as pasteuirzation takes away the subtlety of the product.

Caviar is the food of the Gods and an experience never forgotten.

Cheese

We offer a wide variety of cheeses from around the world served on our slate boards. You can specify or leave our chefs to create a varied and flavoursome cheeseboard. All cheeseboards come garnished with carrots, nuts, fruit and homemade chutney with cheese biscuits and butter aside.
