Seven stars collection

The Seven Stars Collection is designed as a journey through contrast.

Rather than offering multiple caviars with similar flavor profiles, the collection brings together seven selections that differ significantly in pearl size, texture, aromatic direction, intensity, and persistence.

Tradition Prestige

The natural starting point.

Produced from Pacific White sturgeon, Tradition Prestige combines generous silky pearls with creamy butter, fruit, soft nuttiness, and gentle marine salinity.

Its clean, crips finish leaves the palate fresh and provides an approachable reference point for everything that follows.

Tradition Elite

A more distinctive expression of the same Pacific White sturgeon family.

Its extra-large 3.2 mm+ pearls include dark grey, ebony, and amber tones. The texture remains silky and surprisingly light despite the exceptional bead size.

Buttery richness and subtle fruit lead toward nuts, seaweed, and deeper umami, creating a noticeably more savory experience than Prestige.

Oscietra Classic

The traditional Oscietra benchmark.

Velvety, firm pearls develop characteristic hazelnut and butter flavors with a distinctive sea-urchin nuance.

The profile is complex and persistent, with a long finish that clearly separates it from the cleaner, shorter White sturgeon expressions.

Oscietra Royal

A brighter and more aromatic interpretation of Oscietra.

Pear joins butter and hazelnut to create a creamy but fresh profile. Its velvety-firm texture leads into a long, smooth finish with greater aromatic lift than Classic.

Oscietra Imperial

The rare golden expression of the Oscietra family.

Its larger-than-3-mm pearls range from light brown to beige with golden and amber hues. Pine nuts, fresh pecans, hazelnut, and delicate seafoam brine create a deep, balanced umami profile.

Its rarity, golden coloration, and persistent nutty complexity make Imperial one of the collection's most distinctive selections.

Siberian Royal

A decisive move toward bolder savory flavor.

Its firm pearls open creamy and luscious before developing bottarga, dried fruit, nuts, oyster, nori seaweed, and a subtle trace of cured meats.

The finish is long and powerful, giving Siberian Royal one of the strongest savory personalities in the collection.

Sevruga

The smallest pearls deliver one of the most intense finishes.

Sevruga's delicate 2.3-2.6 mm roe releases rich marine flavor quickly, with hazelnut, iodine, anchovy-like aromas, and persistent salinity.

It provides a striking conclusion to the collection and demonstrates clearly that caviar intensity is not determined by pearl size.

Together, the seven selections move from creamy and approachable through increasingly complex, nutty, umami-rich, and ocean-driven profiles.

For the most revealing Seven Stars experience, taste each caviar well chilled and on its own before introducing accompaniments.

Suggested tasting order

1. Tradition Prestige
2. Tradition Elite
3. Oscietra Classic
4. Oscietra Royal
5. Oscietra Imperial
6. Siberian Royal
7. Sevruga

This suggested progression begins with the cleanest and most approachable expression, develops through increasingly persistent nutty and umami profiles, and finishes with the strongest savory and saline characters.

Use the included mother-of-pearl spoon or another non-metal utensil and, whenever possible, cleanse the palate between selections.

After the pure tasting, introduce simple accompaniments such as:

• Blinis
• Crème fraîche, used sparingly
• Boiled potatoes
• Oatcakes or unsalted water crackers
• Toast points

Recommended beverages include:

• Brut or cuvée Champagne
• Premium Franciacorta
• Mineral dry white wines
• Premium chilled vodka

Because the collection contains caviars with very different personalities, pairing can also become part of the experience. Softer accompaniments work particularly well with the Tradition selections, while the more persistent Oscietra, Siberian, and Sevruga profiles can stand up to greater flavor contrast.

The collection also includes a mother-of-pearl spoon for traditional caviar service.

All seven caviars in the Seven Stars Collection are cured using the traditional Malossol technique.

Malossol means “low salt.” By keeping the curing restrained, the objective is not to make every caviar taste the same, but to allow the natural qualities of the different roe to remain visible in the tasting.

This is particularly important in a comparative collection like Seven Stars, where differences in species, pearl size, texture, nuttiness, marine character, umami, and finish are precisely what the tasting is intended to reveal.

The result is seven distinct expressions united by a common approach to caviar craftsmanship.

The Seven Stars Collection contains fresh caviar and should remain properly refrigerated from delivery until serving.

For best quality:

• Refrigerate the collection promptly upon arrival
• Keep the individual tins unopened and chilled until needed
• Open each tin shortly before its turn in the tasting
• Keep the caviar properly chilled throughout service
• Refrigerate any remaining product promptly after use

The current stated shelf life is 90 days unopened from the ship date when stored according to Calvisius recommendations at 28-40°F.

For celebrations and important occasions, plan delivery sufficiently ahead of the event while keeping the collection properly refrigerated until serving.

Seven Stars is designed for occasions when a single tin of caviar is not enough to tell the full story.

Its seven selections allow the recipient to compare several species and styles while discovering differences that are difficult to understand from individual product descriptions alone: large versus small pearls, silky versus firm texture, short versus persistent finishes, creamy versus nutty profiles, and restrained versus intensely marine character.

It is particularly well suited for:

• Exceptional luxury gifting
• Milestone birthdays and anniversaries
• Holiday celebrations
• Executive and corporate gifts
• Dinner hosts and serious food enthusiasts
• Experienced caviar connoisseurs
• Guided tastings with family or friends
• Recipients who want to discover their preferred caviar style

Choose the Seven Stars Collection when the gift should be an exploration of caviar itself - not simply one exceptional selection, but seven clearly different expressions to compare, discuss, and enjoy.

Its magnetic presentation and included mother-of-pearl spoon make it a complete comparative tasting experience ready to share.
