FAQs about Caviar (Buying, Customer Support, Storage & Serving)
🛒 Before Purchase – Questions Before Buying Caviar
What should I consider when choosing a type of caviar?
Consider the species (Beluga, Osetra, Sevruga), flavor profile, texture, and your budget. SB Caviar offers a variety of premium options to suit different preferences.
How can I be sure that the caviar is high quality?
Look for firm, shiny eggs with a clean aroma and a subtle, buttery flavor. At SB Caviar, we guarantee only the highest-grade caviar sourced from trusted producers.
Is your caviar sustainably sourced?
Yes. SB Caviar is committed to environmentally responsible sourcing from certified aquaculture farms that comply with EU sustainability regulations.
Do you sell wild or farmed caviar?
We sell premium-quality farmed caviar, which ensures sustainability, safety, and consistent flavor without endangering wild sturgeon populations.
Where is your caviar produced?
Our caviar is sourced from top-tier aquaculture farms in Europe and Asia, carefully selected to meet our strict quality standards.
Is the caviar certified for sale in Germany and the EU?
Absolutely. All our products meet German food safety laws and EU import regulations, including traceability and CITES certification.
What’s the difference between Beluga, Osetra, and Sevruga caviar?
Beluga offers large, delicate eggs with a buttery flavor. Osetra has a nutty, rich taste with medium-sized grains. Sevruga has smaller eggs with a stronger, briny flavor.
How much caviar should I buy for a dinner or event?
We recommend 30–50 grams per person for a tasting or light appetizer. For main courses or luxury events, 100 grams per person is ideal.
Can I order caviar as a gift?
Yes. SB Caviar offers elegant gift boxes and packaging options, perfect for corporate gifts or special occasions.
Do I need any special tools to serve caviar?
It’s best to use a mother-of-pearl, bone, or gold spoon. Metal can affect the flavor. We offer accessories in our shop to enhance your serving experience.

Caviar should be stored in the coldest part of your refrigerator at 0°C to +2°C. Once opened, consume within 1–3 days.
How long does caviar last unopened?
Unopened, refrigerated caviar from SB Caviar typically lasts up to 4–6 weeks. Always check the “best before” date on the label.
