THE SUCCESSFUL TRANSITION FROM WILD TO FARMED CAVIAR

Long-time caviar fans will certainly be familiar with the issue - around the turn of the millennium, the prices for wild sturgeon caviar rose dramatically, while the quality deteriorated. After all 27 sturgeon species were placed under the protection of the Washington Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), the trade in wild-caught caviar was ultimately banned worldwide in 2006.

At the same time, a new era began with sturgeon farming and the production of sturgeon caviar from aquaculture. More and more sturgeon farms started operations around the world. Today, more than 50 companies produce sturgeon caviar. However, only a few sturgeon farms have been able to optimize the complex breeding and production processes to such an extent that they now (for the past three years) achieve an excellent taste quality like in the best wild sturgeon caviar times.

Every year we face the challenge of finding the best producers for you. Today, with over 16 exquisite varieties from selected sturgeon farms, we can offer you probably the largest selection of outstanding sturgeon caviar in Germany.
