Caspian Caviar Co. review
I’d been wanting to host a luxury caviar tasting with the girls for a while and started researching both caviar tasting venues in Las Vegas and premium caviar companies to order from online. While there are a few places that offer curated experiences, we ultimately loved the idea of hosting a caviar tasting at home. It felt far more intimate, allowed us to go at our own pace, plan our own caviar accoutrements and pairings, and keep the champagne flowing freely. When it came to choosing a caviar brand and finding the best caviar, sourcing was a major deciding factor for us. We wanted high-quality Caspian Sea caviar and were intentional about avoiding imported caviar from China. Which led us to Caspian Caviar & Co. who is a premium caviar brand. So whether you’re looking to host a caviar hosting at home, order holiday caviar gifts, or just learn more about caviar, keep reading.
About Caspian Caviar & Co.
Caspian caviar has long been synonymous with exceptional quality, premium caviar crafted from the finest sturgeon roe native to the Caspian Sea. It’s reputation dates back to the early 20th century, when it first became a coveted delicacy in Baku before making its way to Moscow, Paris and London. More than a century on, the descendants of those original producers have breathed new life into this heritage, with a Florida based company that brings premium Caspian Sea caviar to the US while honoring the traditions that made it iconic.
Beyond luxury, Caspian Caviar Co. is deeply committed to sustainability. The brand works closely with carefully selected sturgeon farms in the Caspian region, alongside respected aquaculture partners across Europe. This helps to protect and preserve this ancient species. These responsible practices ensure not only the future of sturgeon, but also the continuation of a family legacy built on quality, care and craftsmanship.
Each tin of our caviar is a testament to over a century of dedication, expertise, and an unwavering pursuit of perfection. Caspian Caviar & Co.

Which caviars are good for a caviar tasting
We tried the Royal Osetra, Osetra Golden, Kaluga Hybrid, and Kaluga Hybrid from Caspian Caviar & Co. for our caviar tasting at home. These 4 work well for premium caviar tastings as they vary in size, color and flavor profiles. Tasting them side by side was such a fun way to compare them and find our favorites. If you’re new to caviar, or even experienced, parallel tastings really let you experience their unique qualities and differentiate between them.
Caspian Caviar & Co. Royal Osetra caviar
My personal favorite is the Caspian Caviar & Co. Royal Osetra (also spelled Ossetra, Oscetra, Osietra) which is loved for its distinct, refined flavor and delicate texture. These light to dark brown, medium-sized pearls melt in your mouth and I found this to be the smoothest and most delicate tasting of the 4 we tried. Royal Osetra caviar comes from Osetra sturgeon, and is going to give you that nutty, buttery taste, saline taste. I personally liked this one on it’s own or with simple garnishes that didn’t overpower it’s delicate flavor.
Caspian Caviar & Co. Osetra Golden caviar
Named after the sought-after Osetra sturgeon it comes from, and it’s golden color, this was a lot of the girls favorite. This caviar is firmer than the Royal Osetra, with the same nutty and saline taste but with a touch of sweetness. This worked well with the traditional accompaniments like blinis and creme fraiche, as well as on its own.
Caspian Caviar & Co. Kaluga Hybrid caviar
This was my other favorite. However, where the Royal Osetra was delicate and I liked by itself, this one I preferred, because of it’s distinct flavor, paired with stronger food pairings like deviled eggs, smoked salmon and creme fraiche on blinis.
Kaluga Hybrid caviar is large, glossy, dark gray to golden brown, firm pearls from the Kaluga sturgeon. The caviar melts in your mouth, has a buttery flavor and I found it to have the strongest briny notes. The tasting notes say subtle, but I think we all taste different notes differently. Either way, it’s a fantastic caviar, reminiscent of traditional beluga caviar. Eat this on it’s own, with classic accompaniments, or even deviled eggs and smoked salmon. As this caviar can stand up to these without being overwhelmed.
Caspian Caviar & Co. Kaluga Hybrid Golden – Huso Dauricus caviar
If you’re looking for something special and the most luxurious variety of caviar, Huso Huso Hybrid is sourced from the Beluga sturgeon. The glossy, silver-gray to black pearls are larger than the Osetra. If you’re looking for creamy texture that melts in your mouth rather than a firm texture, this is probably going to be your favorite. It’s rich, buttery, oceanic, and not as nutty as the Osetra. This is for those looking for a luxury caviar and it’s perfect for special occasions. This caviar, like all of the above, works well on its own or with classic caviar accompaniments that pair well with it’s salty, buttery flavor.

How to store your caviar
Caviar is highly perishable so to avoid food poisoning and ruined caviar:
- As soon as you receive your package, open it and place the caviar can(s) in the fridge. Do not put the entire unopened package in the fridge.
- For optimal storage keep your caviar at 28°F (-2.2°C) to 32°F (0°C). A lot of fridges don’t get this cold, so place it in the coldest part (normally your bottom drawer.)
- Do not keep your caviar in the freezer!
- Check the use by dates. Caspian Caviar & co. recommends consuming caviar within 3 weeks of purchasing.
If you’re sending a caviar gift delivery please make them aware of these care instructions.
