Caviar is one of the most exclusive and expensive gastronomic products in the world. These black pellets are famous for their unique flavor, and can be found inside gold-plated tins. Its high price is due to its scarcity, and there are even several categories to differentiate its origin, type and quality. Here we tell you a little more about the world’s most expensive caviar, so luxurious that it is only sold in gold-plated tins.
To understand the high cost of caviar, it is first necessary to know what it is. Caviar comes from the salt-cured roe of fish known as ‘sturgeons’, a marine genus with about 20 species that inhabit the Caspian and Black Seas, and which since the 10th century has been signified as a designated food for the aristocracy.
In the past, caviar was quite accessible to most of the population, only to become a gourmet product due to the scarcity of the fish and the difficulties involved in obtaining its roe. Currently, the Guinness Record for the world’s most expensive caviar is held by Almas, with caviar from Iran’s Beluga fish.
Due to the fact that this aquatic species is in danger of extinction, its production and commercialization are highly regulated. The surprising thing is that, besides being the most expensive caviar in the world, this Almas product is also considered to be the most expensive food at an international level. Definitely, tasting it is a sybaritic feast for the palate.
The word Almas in Russian translates as diamondThe same exclusivity and luxury is found in what must be the most expensive caviar in the world, as one kilogram costs around 35,000 dollars, although the product is sold in smaller quantities and in 24-karat gold-plated containers. The world’s most expensive caviar is only available at Caviar House & Prunier stores, so finding it is almost as difficult as obtaining it.
