The Black C is the result of Iranian savoir-faire and expertise from the Amur River (Sino-Russian border). Selecting the best sturgeon and rearing them in their natural habitat produces firm and uniform-shaped caviar with slightly golden grains that possess a delicious buttery flavour with a hint of nuts – resembling that of the prestigious Beluga!
Why is the quality of The Black C caviar so flawless?
There are a number of criteria that define the quality of caviar.
The type of sturgeon is crucial. The Black C caviar comes from sturgeon born from crossing two highly-regarded species: the Kaluga (Huso Dauricus is the cousin to the famous Beluga Huso Huso) and the Amur sturgeon (Acipenser Schrenkii). This happy marriage gives rise to a luxurious and lavish caviar resembling the Beluga; a firm and uniform-shaped caviar with slightly golden grains that possess a delicious buttery flavour with a hint of nuts.
Its heritage is equally as important: carefully-selected The Black C caviar farms continuously monitor the purity and authenticity of the species to ensure consistent quality. Because each female is individually monitored, tagged, and computerised throughout every stage of its lifecycle, traceability is undisputable. In a market subjected to smuggling and adulteration, particularly concerning wild caviar, this proof of quality is highly appreciated.
Of course, the environment plays an extremely vital role. Our sturgeons are bred in a natural environment in pure water at a controlled temperature, in accordance with reproductive cycles and with a suitable and varied diet.
Finally, the flavour and quality of the grains are dependent on the experience and expertise of the "Master Caviar": akin to the master breeder of Kobe beef.
