The Caviar
Beluga is the caviar every other caviar is measured against. Its eggs are prized for exceptional size, a delicate texture that yields rather than pops, and a depth of flavour nothing else in the category reaches. Croe’s Imperial Beluga comes from Huso huso sturgeon, the species indigenous to the Caspian Sea.
The rarity is a matter of biology rather than marketing. A Huso huso takes up to twenty years to reach maturity, so every gram is the product of extraordinary patience and strict sustainable practice. That is why Beluga costs what it does, and why there is genuinely no substitute for it.

Questions
Why is Beluga so expensive?
A Huso huso sturgeon takes up to twenty years to reach maturity. The cost reflects two decades of husbandry per fish, and the strict sustainability rules that govern the species.
How does Beluga differ from Oscietra?
Beluga pearls are considerably larger and more delicate, with a creamier texture. Oscietra is smaller and firmer with a nuttier character. Neither is better; they are different experiences.
What size should I choose?
30g serves two properly. 100g is a serving for a table, or a genuine centrepiece for a celebration.
