{"product_id":"kaluga-caviar","title":"Kaluga Caviar – Huso dauricus","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKaluga caviar\u003c\/strong\u003e, from the \u003cem\u003eHuso dauricus\u003c\/em\u003e sturgeon, is one of the rarest and most prestigious caviars in the world. Its generous eggs, measuring approximately \u003cstrong\u003e3.2 to 3.6 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, display a magnificent \u003cstrong\u003egolden to golden-brown\u003c\/strong\u003e hue, a smooth and creamy texture, and an exceptional aromatic profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, Kaluga first reveals a rich combination of \u003cstrong\u003ebutter and delicate saline notes\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by slightly nutty nuances, before giving way to a \u003cstrong\u003elong, fresh, and subtly oceanic finish\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginating from the Amur River basin in the Far East, \u003cem\u003eHuso dauricus\u003c\/em\u003e belongs to the same genus as the famous \u003cstrong\u003eBeluga (\u003cem\u003eHuso huso\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/strong\u003e. Both species share several remarkable characteristics: large eggs, a buttery richness, a silky texture, and a beautiful aromatic depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaluga represents the \u003cstrong\u003emost prestigious caviar from the Amur River family\u003c\/strong\u003e, alongside our \u003cstrong\u003eAmur (\u003cem\u003eAcipenser schrenckii\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/strong\u003e and our \u003cstrong\u003eImperial\u003c\/strong\u003e, a hybrid of Kaluga and Amur. For connoisseurs looking to go beyond Osetra or Baerii, Kaluga offers a truly exceptional experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between Kaluga and Beluga?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaluga and Beluga are very similar. They both belong to the \u003cem\u003eHuso\u003c\/em\u003e genus and share many characteristics: \u003cstrong\u003elarge eggs, buttery richness, creamy texture, and a long finish\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeluga generally exhibits a slightly more pronounced saline and umami intensity, while Kaluga offers a \u003cstrong\u003erounder, softer, and more enveloping\u003c\/strong\u003e profile. The difference may be subtle on the palate, but both represent distinct expressions of this prestigious caviar family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is Kaluga caviar golden brown?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrary to the idea that caviar must necessarily be black, sturgeon eggs can naturally display a wide variety of colors, ranging from white and yellow to golden, gray, brown, and green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaluga stands out with its \u003cstrong\u003eshades ranging from deep amber to warm golden brown\u003c\/strong\u003e. This coloration is a natural characteristic related to the genetics of the species and is not the result of any particular treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur \u003cstrong\u003eAmur\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eImperial\u003c\/strong\u003e also feature this same family of warm hues, characteristic of species originating from the Amur River basin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Kaluga caviar legal in Canada?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. \u003cstrong\u003eFarmed Kaluga\u003c\/strong\u003e can be sold in Canada when it complies with applicable requirements, including those related to CITES and import. Unlike wild Beluga from the Caspian Sea, which is subject to strict international restrictions, Kaluga from sustainable farms is a legal and available option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt thus offers an experience reminiscent of the rich and buttery profile of Beluga family caviar, while being produced in a controlled and sustainable farming environment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CaviarHub","offers":[{"title":"30g","offer_id":54211447292272,"sku":"quint-kaluga-30g","price":130.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g","offer_id":54211447325040,"sku":"quint-kaluga-50g","price":211.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":54211447357808,"sku":"quint-kaluga-100g","price":380.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0969\/0801\/8032\/files\/kaluga-q-1.webp?v=1787374618","url":"https:\/\/www.biocos.ca\/en-sg\/products\/kaluga-caviar","provider":"Biocos Canada ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
