Caviar Tasting Set FAQs

Which tasting selection should I choose?

The Caviar Tasting Selection brings together Baerii, Royal Imperial and Oscietra. It's the ideal way to find your favourite before buying a larger tin. If you're celebrating, or want the complete picture, the Tasting Selection with Beluga adds our largest, most prestigious pearls.

What tin sizes can I choose, and how many people will it serve?

Both selections come with 30g, 50g, 125g or 250g tins of each variety:

  • 30g: A relaxed tasting for two.
  • 50g: A tasting for three or four.
  • 125g: The centrepiece of a party for eight to 12 guests.
  • 250g: Larger gatherings or special events.

What order should I taste them in?

Start with the mildest and work up to the richest. Begin with Baerii, then Royal Imperial, then Oscietra, finishing with Beluga if your selection includes it. Between tins, a sip of water or a slice of apple keeps each flavour distinct.

What should I look for as I taste?

Notice four things as you go:

  • Pearl size: Medium Baerii through to large Beluga.
  • Colour: Slate grey, golden, amber and silvery grey.
  • Texture: How firmly each pearl pops against the roof of your mouth.
  • Finish: Oscietra and Beluga linger longest, while Baerii is clean and light.

Taste each one plain from a mother of pearl spoon first, then try it on a blini with crème fraîche.

What should I drink with a tasting selection?

A Brut or Blanc de Blancs champagne works across the whole range. Ice-cold vodka is the classic alternative. A crisp Chablis or Sauvignon Blanc suits the lighter Baerii especially well.

Do I need to open all the tins at once?

No. Unopened tins keep for at least a month in the coldest part of your fridge. Only open what you'll finish within 48 hours, so you can taste one variety at a time over a few weeks if you prefer.
