Imperial Osetra

Rare, radiant, and reserved for the most discerning palates, Imperial Osetra is the crown of our Osetra collection. Cultivated by Kaluga Queen, among the world’s most celebrated caviar houses, from the Russian Osetra sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), it represents the lightest and most coveted grade of the harvest.

Flavor Profile

Large, firm pearls glow in shades from dark honey to brilliant gold. Each one yields a smooth, buttery texture with an elegant nuttiness and a mild, clean finish that lingers gracefully on the palate.

The Imperial Distinction

Golden Osetra is the rarest expression of the species. Only a small portion of each harvest achieves the light color and refined character of the Imperial grade, which is why it has long been reserved for royal tables and celebrated occasions.

Serving Suggestions

Serve chilled on a mother-of-pearl spoon, or atop warm blini with a touch of crème fraîche. Pair with a vintage Champagne or ice-cold premium vodka to let its delicate richness shine.
