What you’re buying

Kaluga Hybrid is a farmed cross between Kaluga sturgeon (Huso dauricus) and Amur sturgeon (Acipenser schrenckii). It’s the closest legally available alternative to Beluga — Beluga is banned from US import, but Kaluga Hybrid shares its genus lineage, large pearls, and rounded, buttery flavor.

Kaluga caviar FAQ

Is Kaluga Hybrid caviar farm-raised, and how is quality controlled?
Yes — it's farm-raised under aquaculture, not wild-caught, and cured malossol, the low-salt method that preserves the roe's flavor without masking it. Every tin carries a CITES label recording source, country of origin, and harvest year, since all sturgeon species are listed under CITES Appendix II; imports are also subject to FDA food-safety requirements for seafood. Contains fish (sturgeon roe).
What are the health benefits of caviar?
A 1 oz (28 g) serving delivers about 7 g of protein, about 800 mg EPA and 1,080 mg DHA (omega-3 fatty acids), 236% of the daily value for vitamin B12, plus selenium, iron, and small amounts of vitamins A, D, and E. Omega-3s and B12 support brain, heart, and immune health, though most of the research behind these benefits comes from lab and animal studies rather than large human trials. Caviar is also relatively high in sodium, so nutritionists recommend treating it as a garnish (a teaspoon or so at a time) rather than a regular high-volume food, and keeping servings to about twice a week if watching sodium or cholesterol.
How long does it keep, and how should I store it?
Unopened, it keeps 4 weeks at 28–32°F (−2 to 0°C) in the fridge — never freeze it, freezing ruptures the pearls. Once opened, use it within 48 hours.
How is it shipped, and how fast will I get it?
Ships to all 50 US states. Orders leave within 3 business days, then travel overnight via UPS in an insulated cooler with gel ice.
