Food of the gods and relished by lesser mortals too. For centuries the salted roe of the sturgeon has been highly prized and treasured by the great and the good. Ancient Phoenicians used it to sustain them in times of war and famine; Pliny and Ovid sung its praises in their verse; and the Russian Tsars and Emperors of Manchuria reserved it greedily and wisely for themselves. To this day, caviar remains undoubtedly the most sought after, exquisite delicacy in the world and it is certainly the most exclusive.

Caviar is a totally natural, complete food. It is derived from a fish that ranges enormously in individual species, age and habitat. Today it is available in a bewildering range of quality, colour and flavour. A key question in many peoples' minds is often which variety of caviar is the best. To professionals in the caviar business, this is rather like asking whether you prefer sole, salmon or trout ' it all depends on personal preference, mood, circumstances.

Perhaps your dealer has better Oscietre than Sevruga in stock, or vice versa. Many claim that a black Beluga with large eggs is the best; others insist that a grey egg is the only good colour. In reality there is no difference in the quality ' the colour of the eggs depends on the individual fish. Beluga is certainly the rarest and this makes it the most expensive, but not necessarily 'the best'. Many professionals prize new-season Sevruga above all others.The French, who are great consumers of caviar eat the most Oscietre, while older generations, Eastern Europeans and Russians prefer pressed caviar.

Above all, caviar is about pure pleasure. It is about spoiling yourself, indulging and relaxing with one of the most sensual, irresistible, exquisite tastes in life.
