Golden Kaluga Hybrid Caviar

A truly special, limited-quantity caviar: golden in color, with large, firm eggs that pop gently against the palate and finish with a pure, light aftertaste. A crossbreed of Kaluga and Amur sturgeon, it’s hand-picked and packed the day your order ships, and it arrives with creme fraiche and blini mix to build the perfect bite. It comes from Chef Thomas Keller, who founded Regiis Ova with caviar expert Shaoching Bishop in 2018, farm-raised in Napa. Perfect for a special-occasion splurge.

Add On Options Include

• Jar of Crème Fraîche (2.5 oz)
• Leather Gift Box
• Caviar Tin Opener – A beautiful necessity for caviar tins
• Mother of Pearl Spoon – Hand carved Mother of Pearl spoons are the traditional accoutrements used to serve caviar, since Mother of Pearl (like wood, gold, animal horn) is inert and does not affect the caviar’s fragile flavor. Any other type of silver tableware could alter the taste of caviar and impart an unpleasant flavor
