About Buying Almas Caviar

Iranian Almas caviar had long been the sole preserve of Shahs, Tsars and Sultans, for it was only these men who ruled absolute over millions, by the divine right of God, that had the right to taste the angelic flavors, and feel the tenderness of these gastronomic pearls over their tongue.

The rarity of Almas caviar is so because the sturgeon from which it is produced from is the Albino Beluga sturgeon, who has to reach the specific age of 100 years old before the eggs can be obtained. The roe is a brilliant white, spiritually so, sparkling with a diamond like finish.

Offering the most delicious taste, uniquely tender and nuanced in its flavor, with the richness of fresh buttery Beluga and an aroma that is all its own, you will slip into a dreamlike state with the very first bite.

A Regal History

To taste Almas is to taste the soul of Iran, bathed in a history that stretches back nearly 3000 years. Almas’ delightfully smooth flavor, peppered with distinct notes of Autumnal nut and abundantly rich cream is offset by a beautifully tender feel, a tenderness that can only come from eggs sourced from a sturgeon that is over 100 years old.
