Sustainability

No Forced Relocation

Our sturgeon and thus your caviar is farmed in the Caspian Sea – the evolutionary origin of the sturgeon. Our sturgeons exist in harmony with mother nature, in the same place they were conceived some 250 million years ago.

None of our sturgeon, unlike non-Caspian Sea producers, have been relocated from their natural environment and transported to far away countries or farms. Thus an excellent ecosystem that ensures quality and sustainability is guaranteed.

The only true caviar comes from the Caspian Sea.

Our caviar adheres to genuine sustainability not marketing buzz words.

Ecology

Farmed in its Natural Origin

As our sturgeons are farmed in their native, prehistoric habitat, you will be rewarded with the same sumptuous taste and divine texture that was enjoyed by the likes of Alexander the Great and Tsar Nicholas II.

We have  not  introduced any exotic sturgeon species, genotypes or various hybrids, which cause a dramatic loss of genetic integrity, into our farms.

Our sturgeon feed on crustaceans, small mollusks and small worms.

We were the first to use ultrasound scanners for sexing our sturgeon, which is now a technique that is used by breeders throughout the world. It allows us to separate our sturgeon and optimize our practices along the way.

Traceability & Transparency

Our CITES Code

Our caviar has been approved by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora).

This ensures and legally guarantees traceability. Every tin of your caviar is traced to the fish that went inside it.

Our registration number with CITES is 530. Please see here for more information. Please note that if the caviar you buy does not have an Export CITES, the caviar is not coming from the farm, and instead is being sold via an intermediary.

In 2001, Iran was exempted from CITES international ban because it has a functioning management system for sturgeon (CITES Approval for Iranian Caviar in 2001), (CITES Commendation for Iran’s Conservation Efforts in 2001) and was commended again in 2003 for imposing the ban upon itself to help to replenish the depleted stocks. (CITES on Iranian Caviar Quotas in 2003)

Iran was commended several times by the UN for their efforts in protecting the sturgeon in 2003 (UN Report on Caspian States Conservation Efforts in 2003) and again in 2006 (UN-Backed Body on Caviar Export Ban in 2006)

The success of these conservation efforts are correlated with Iran being the largest exporter of caviar in the world between 1998 and 2006 (European Commission on Caviar Trade)

The Origins of Baerii Sturgeon Caviar

  • Baerii caviar comes from a unique and prehistoric species of sturgeon known as Acipenser Baerii. Hailing from the mythical Caspian Sea, this remarkable sea creature takes 6-8 years to produce its exquisite roe.

  • Today, these giants of the ancient world are still found in frigid river basins, standing as some of the largest and most distinctive fish on earth. Drawing quality nutrients from their unique environment, the wild sturgeon produces exemplary roe rich in vital vitamins and minerals, including B12 and Omega 3.

The Global Production of Premium Baerii

  • Baerii is a popular and affordable alternative to the luxurious caviar sourced from the Beluga sturgeon. This coveted resource is farmed worldwide, with top-quality Baerii caviar coming from Iran, Russia, the USA, and various locations across Europe.

  • Known for its outstanding quality and abundant supply, Baerii produces roe at a higher rate than other sturgeon species, making it a favourite among fish farms globally. However, caviar from ethically bred and kept sturgeon, raised in chemical and hormone-free environments, offers a pristine, luxurious quality unmatched by any other.

A 125g tin of this high-quality caviar typically costs around £100 for American-farmed caviar or £200 for premium, organic options. This makes Baerii caviar the top choice of affordable caviar, catering to various budgets.
