Sturia Oscietra Prestige Caviar

Oscietra Prestige is Sturia's top selection of their Oscietra caviar — the same Russian sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), the same Aquitaine farms, the same 3–8 month ageing process, but only the finest grains make it into this tin. During production, Sturia's selectors assess every batch for grain size, uniformity, colour, firmness, and aromatic quality. The grains that meet the Prestige standard are set aside; everything else becomes the standard Oscietra. The result is a caviar with the same buttery, nutty Oscietra character — notes of hazelnut, butter, and avocado — but with a noticeably more refined texture, greater consistency grain to grain, and a longer, more developed finish on the palate.

If you already know and enjoy the standard Sturia Oscietra, the Prestige is the next step. The flavour profile is recognisably the same, but the overall experience is more polished — the grains are more uniform in size and colour, the pop is cleaner, and the aromatic complexity has more depth. This is the caviar Sturia selects when quality alone is the only consideration.

Sturia is not a caviar trader. They are one of a small number of producers worldwide who control every stage of the process — breeding, farming, harvesting, selecting, salting, and refining — on their own French farms. Every fish is born and raised in France. Every tin is fully traceable. The caviar is produced without antibiotics, growth hormones, processed terrestrial animal proteins, or GMOs.

Oscietra vs Oscietra Prestige

Both come from the same species (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), raised on the same farms, and aged in the same maturing rooms. The difference is selection. Standard Oscietra is excellent caviar with golden-green grains and Sturia's signature creamy, buttery character. Oscietra Prestige is drawn from the same production but only the most exceptional grains — assessed for size, colour, firmness, and flavour — are selected. The Prestige delivers a more uniform appearance, a cleaner texture, and greater aromatic length.
