Beluga Caviar Blog

The most talked about subjects for the connoisseurs of caviar is the supply of Beluga Caviar. The importation of this delicacy was banned in America in 2005. In 2006 the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species suspended all trade in Caspian Sea caviar except for what was being produced in Iran. Iran was given this exception because they proved their fisheries used safe and conservative policies in harvesting this morsel.

This ban was partially lifted in 2007 and the trade in Caspian Sea Caviar is now again on the world market. Unfortunately for the American Market, the political disputes with Iran have kept their product from reaching the American shores in most instances. This ban was put in place in 2008 and is still present.

Caviar Blog Market News

On the market today there are many retailers attempting to fool the caviar connoisseurs by placing the name beluga within the title of their product. In the descriptions of the product are statements that the Beluga is native to the Caspian and Black Seas but makes no claim that the contents of the tin came from there.

The words Royal and Black are also often used. There is even one retailer that is making the claim that Osetra Private Stock Caviar is the only Beluga Caviar available in the American Market. Osetra caviar is a different species from Beluga so do not be fooled by hyped misleading marketing tricks.

The only countries that can produce true Caspian Beluga caviar include Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, China, Iran, Kazakhstan, Romania, Russia, Serbia and Montenegro, Turkmenistan, and Ukraine. There is some from America, but they are produced in fish farms and not considered the same quality.

If you do run across any real Beluga, I hope you have your Mother of Pearl spoon ready. There are many tourists that travel abroad that forget to pack this item in their bags. While a plastic spoon will work, it is just not the same.

The entire problem has been developed by the overfishing of this fish in its native habitat. Nothing can be done about what has occurred in the past, but unless some of the caviar is allowed to grow up and thrive, this delicacy may be gone from the wild for ever very soon.

This caviar blog is a wonderful resource to use for your enjoyment. We just hope the beluga will never go extinct and responsible fishing practices are used for what there is available on the market to enjoy.
