Features
The consistency of the 5-star Siberian caviar is particularly pleasant: velvety-soft in texture, yet delicate and harmonious.
It comes from our carefully bred females, which are around eight to ten years old. Its fine roe have a diameter of approximately 2.6 to 2.7 mm and vary in shades between black, grey, and brown and olive nuances.
This caviar impresses with a balanced interplay of soft creaminess and a subtle "pop" in the mouth.
The 5-star Siberian caviar is perfect for daily enjoyment as well as for special moments – for instance, on fresh bread with a little butter. A touch of luxury that elegantly enhances everyday life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the Siberian sturgeon?
The Siberian sturgeon is an ancient fish species, belonging to the sturgeon family – animals that existed during the time of the dinosaurs. Its natural habitat is in the large rivers of Siberia, such as the Ob, Irtysh, Lena, and Yenisei. Unlike other sturgeon species, it does not migrate to the sea but lives its entire life in freshwater – which makes it particularly well-suited for sustainable aquaculture.
Because it is more robust than, for example, Beluga or Osetra, and matures faster (approx. 6–8 years), the Siberian sturgeon is today one of the most important species worldwide for caviar production. Its eggs are medium-sized, usually anthracite to dark brown, and are characterized by a pleasant nutty, harmonious taste.
Caspian Blue exclusively sources caviar from Siberian sturgeon from responsible, certified aquaculture – no wild catches, no compromises on quality or origin.
What does Siberian sturgeon caviar taste like – and why is it ideal for beginners?
Caviar from Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii) has a mild, elegant, and slightly nutty taste, which is often described as particularly balanced and pleasantly accessible. The grain size is medium, the color ranges from deep gray to brown, and the texture is delicate but not too soft.
Newcomers to the world of caviar particularly appreciate this roe – and for good reason: Baerii caviar has a subtle and well-rounded flavor with a hint of marine freshness.
The pearls burst gently on the tongue – not too firm, not too liquid – ideal for a first impression.
Whether on blinis, with egg, crème fraîche, or simply pure – this caviar can be enjoyed in many ways without overwhelming the palate.
Baerii caviar is generally somewhat more affordable than Beluga or Osietra, without compromising on quality or origin – ideal for a stylish introduction.
In short: Those who want to discover caviar often start here. Not because it's the simplest – but because it conveys the taste of "real caviar" without being overwhelming.
How long does it take for a Siberian sturgeon to produce caviar?
After approximately 6 to 8 years, the female is ready to produce roe of sufficient quality for the first time. During this period, the fish is carefully cared for, fed, and monitored – entirely without artificial intervention or stress.
For comparison: A Beluga sturgeon needs 20 years or more
The Siberian sturgeon therefore offers an ideal balance of quality, sustainability, and time investment – perfect for responsible caviar enjoyment without compromise.
