• Species: Pacific White sturgeon, Acipenser transmontanus
• Origins of the species: North American West coast, from Alaska to Southern California 
• Size of the fish: large, may grow to 800kg or 1760 lbs and can be as long as 6m or 19’
• Roe diameter: large, 2.8mm/3.2mm
• Color: dark grey to black
• Texture: compact and smooth, enhanced by its large roe 
• Character: balanced and elegant 
• Aromatic notes: strongly fruity with nutty and buttery notes, reminiscent of the most delicate nuances of the sea. 

Flavor notes: Tradition Prestige has large eggs that are silky and have elegant notes. Creamy, buttery flavors arrive first as hints of seaweed yield to a long, impressive clean finish. The taste of this caviar is perfectly balanced with round notes, combining delicate nuances of the sea with light, buttery flavors of pastry.

Recommended combination: Brut Champagne or Satèn (premium Franciacorta) bubbles. Serve on mother of pearl spoons as-is, to enjoy it in its purity. Or, harness Tradition’s buttery creaminess atop avocado or boiled potatoes to let its luxurious notes come forward.

This unique caviar paste, Payusnaya, became a passion project for Calvisius.

An age-old tradition, Payusnaya was traditionally produced with second grade eggs, harvested from overly mature sturgeon, and its recipe contained a high salt content which resulted in a bold fishy flavor.

It was used as nutritional bars ante-litteram by soldiers during the Tsars military campaigns.

Acquiring the original recipe from specialists, Calvisius’ caviar team developed their Payusnaya by mastering the technique of lightly salting the eggs and hanging them in a linen bag to drain excess moisture.

Only premium grade Pacific White sturgeon caviar is used, which lends a consistently smooth, creamy flavor; the result is a unique caviar paste that boasts intense, pure aromas.

A true Old World delicacy that has been elevated to the distinguished Italian standard of Calvisius and promises a notable caviar experience!

Shelf life: 90 days, unopened, from ship date

How to serve: bring to near room temperature and spread on bread, toast points, blinis or canapés.

Calvisius Caviar butter cream was specifically formulated in the U.S. for the American palate.

Developed by the team at Calvisius USA, our caviar butter is a unique combination of Italian know-how mixed with pure Vermont butter boasting 83% butter fat and then blended with an abundance of Pacific White Sturgeon caviar.

A delicate aroma with concentrated flavor makes this a perfect accompaniment with hors d’oeuvres, pastas and risottos.

Elevate fish or steak courses by placing a dollop on top just before serving. Great on spinach, asparagus, or simply with raw radish as the French do!

Up to 120 days shelf life. Keep refrigerated.
