Sturia Classic Osetra Caviar
When it comes to ethical luxury, we think of Sturia Classic Osetra Caviar from France. Using the Atlantic Ocean and spring waters, their sturgeon are ethically and sustainably raised to perfection using only locally sourced products, from feed to equipment.
Sturia Classic Osetra Caviar tops the charts as Sturia's best seller and for good reason. The nutty profile melts with notes of olive oil. As our newest caviar partner, Browne Trading is thrilled to work with Sturia - a company whose colorful branding pays homage to the roaring 20's, a time between wars in France marked by prosperity, joy, and luxury. You can expect Sturia's caviar to evokes its timeless values of precise gastronomy while beautifully representing the French art of living.

New to Caviar?
Be sure to check out our caviar 101 guide. Note that caviar will remain optimal in your refrigerator, unopened, for 4-6 weeks. Crucially, once opened you should consume within three days.
We recommend adding our Caviar Serving Assortment to your caviar order. It includes everything you need to serve and enjoy our caviar (blinis, creme fraiche, and mother of pearl spoons).
As the only US company that has the rights to include both our logo and the caviar farms' logos on our labels, we take great pride in our close vendor relationships. They ensure we have high quality caviar every time. Check out our wonderful caviar partners for more information.
Important 12 Gram Information
We are currently rolling out a 12 gram option for some of our caviars. The 12 gram size is perfect for sampling. Due to caviar pearl's delicate texture, these small sample sized tins might reflect a softer pearl than in our larger sizes.
Additionally, the small tin requires a thinner tool than your typical caviar key. We recommend a coin or butter knife. For those looking for an easier experience, we recommend 30 grams (1 ounce) or larger.
