Calvisius Original Tin

Serve the selected caviar well chilled and open the 125 g tin shortly before tasting.

For the purest experience, begin by tasting the caviar directly using the included mother-of-pearl spoons.

Tradition Prestige

Its creamy, buttery character works particularly well with:

• Blinis with a restrained amount of crème fraîche
• Boiled potatoes
• Avocado
• Brut Champagne
• Satèn or premium Franciacorta

These accompaniments enhance rather than mask Prestige's fruit, nut, butter, and gentle marine character.

Tradition Elite

Because of its extra-large pearls and deeper savory profile, Elite is particularly rewarding when first tasted on its own.

It also pairs well with:

• Blinis
• Crème fraîche
• Boiled potatoes
• Avocado
• Brut Champagne
• Premium Franciacorta Satèn

Keep accompaniments simple so the remarkable pearl size, silky texture, seaweed nuances, and deeper umami remain easy to appreciate.

For a celebratory table, place the chilled caviar tin at the center and allow guests to serve directly from it using appropriate non-metal utensils.

Before caviar reaches the table, time and craftsmanship play an essential role in shaping its final character.

The Original Tin represents an important part of that process.

During production, precious sturgeon roe is cured and aged in these tins as its flavor and organoleptic profile develop. The tins are periodically turned using a technique known as remuage, helping the caviar mature evenly and develop a balanced expression.

The process recalls the careful maturation associated with fine Champagne and Franciacorta, where time, handling, and controlled movement contribute to the finished product.

For the Calvisius Original Tin gift set, an empty original-style maturation tin becomes the presentation itself.

Inside is a fresh 125 g tin of your chosen Calvisius Tradition caviar, accompanied by the proper tools for serving it.

The result connects the finished caviar on the table with the craftsmanship behind its production.

The Original Tin is available with your choice of two different expressions of Pacific White sturgeon caviar.

Although both belong to the Calvisius Tradition family, Tradition Prestige and Tradition Elite offer noticeably different tasting experiences.

Tradition Prestige - 125 g / 4.4 oz

Species: Pacific White sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus)
Roe size: Approximately 2.8-3.2 mm
Color: Dark grey to black
Texture: Compact, smooth, and silky
Profile: Butter, fruit, nuts, and gentle marine salinity
Finish: Clean and crisp

Tradition Prestige is the balanced reference point of the Calvisius Tradition range.

Its large silky pearls open with creamy, buttery richness before revealing strong fruity character, soft nuttiness, and delicate nuances of the sea.

Its clean, crisp finish keeps the profile approachable and makes Prestige particularly versatile for celebrations involving guests with different levels of caviar experience.

Choose Tradition Prestige for: a balanced, broadly appealing caviar with silky texture, buttery richness, and an elegant presentation.

Tradition Elite - 125 g / 4.4 oz

Species: Pacific White sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus)
Roe size: Extra-large, approximately 3.2 mm and above
Color: Dark grey, ebony, and amber tones
Texture: Silky and light despite the exceptional pearl size
Profile: Butter, soft fruit, nuts, seaweed, and deeper umami
Harvest cycle: Approximately 14-15 years

Tradition Elite takes the Pacific White sturgeon experience in a more distinctive direction.

The immediately noticeable difference is the exceptional pearl size. Roe measuring 3.2 mm and above creates striking visual impact while maintaining an unexpectedly silky, light texture.

The flavor begins with smooth buttery richness and subtle fruit before developing soft nuttiness, hints of seaweed, and deeper umami.

Compared with Prestige, Elite places greater emphasis on exceptional bead size and savory depth.

Choose Tradition Elite for: extra-large pearls, greater visual impact, and a deeper umami-driven tasting experience.

One 125 g / 4.4 oz Caviar Tin

Choose:

• Tradition Prestige, or
• Tradition Elite

The generous 125 g format makes the Original Tin especially appropriate for sharing at the table and for occasions where caviar is intended to become a central part of the experience rather than a small accent.

One Caviar Tin Opener

A dedicated opener makes it easier to open the vacuum-sealed caviar tin properly and helps complete the traditional serving ritual.

Two Mother-of-Pearl Spoons

Mother-of-pearl is traditionally used for caviar service because it does not interfere with the delicate flavor of the roe.

Two spoons make the Original Tin particularly suited to sharing the tasting experience.

Original Tin Presentation

The components are presented within the distinctive Calvisius Original Tin - a reference to the vessel used in the curing and maturation of caviar.

Rather than functioning only as packaging, the Original Tin connects the gift to the craftsmanship and history behind the product.

The Original Tin is designed for someone who would appreciate not only exceptional caviar, but also the craftsmanship and tradition behind it.

Unlike a conventional gift box, its presentation refers directly to an important part of the caviar maturation process.

Inside, the generous 125 g caviar format and dedicated serving accessories create a complete experience ready to open and share.

It is particularly well suited for:

• Milestone birthdays and anniversaries
• Major celebrations
• Holiday gifting
• Corporate and executive gifts
• Dinner hosts
• Experienced caviar enthusiasts
• Couples and shared tasting occasions
• Recipients interested in food craftsmanship and provenance

For a recipient who prefers a creamy, balanced, and broadly approachable profile, choose Tradition Prestige.

For someone who values exceptional pearl size, visual impact, and deeper umami character, choose Tradition Elite.

Choose the Calvisius Original Tin when the presentation should tell as much of a story as the caviar itself - connecting the finished tasting experience with the tradition and craftsmanship behind Calvisius production.
