Description
Baerii Sturgeon Classic Caviar
Baerii Sturgeon Classic is Acipenser baerii caviar from the Netherlands. It is the same species as our Baerii Sturgeon Caviar from Poland, but it comes from different farming conditions, with different water and different feed, and the result is a different caviar. If you are looking for baerii caviar with a cleaner, gentler profile, the Classic is the tin to start with.
The pearls are 0.07–0.11 in and run dark brown to dark olive. The taste is clean and slightly sweet, with a creamy, nutty finish, and a bit milder than our Siberian sturgeon caviar from Poland. Choose the Classic if you prefer a softer, rounder caviar, if you are serving guests who are new to sturgeon caviar, or if you want a smooth match for dry Champagne. Like all of our caviar, it is malossol (lightly salted), and every tin is hand-graded for bead size, color and pearl integrity.
Baerii Classic caviar price by size: $110 for 50 g (1.75 oz), $200 for 100 g, $226 for 113 g (4 oz), $250 for 125 g, $300 for 150 g, $500 for 250 g, $1,000 for 500 g and $2,000 for 1 kg. That is $2.20 per gram for the 50 g tin and $2.00 per gram for 1 kg. Buy it online and it is packed cold and shipped Express in 1–2 business days within the contiguous U.S., with free shipping on orders $300+.

Tasting Notes
- Texture: Creamy finish
- Flavor: Clean and slightly sweet, with a nutty finish; milder than our Poland Baerii
- Pearls: Dark brown to dark olive, 0.07–0.11 in
- Salt: Malossol, lightly salted
How to Serve
- Classic: Chilled at 28–32°F on a mother-of-pearl spoon to taste the sweet finish.
- On blini: On a warm mini blini with a thin layer of crème fraîche.
- As a canapé: On a mini toast with crème fraîche; mild enough for first-time guests.
Tip: Let the tin sit on ice, not in the freezer, for a few minutes before serving.
Pairs Well With
- White Toque 16 Mini Blinis — Soft, bite-size base that lets the pearls lead
- Vermont Creamery Crème Fraîche 8 oz — Cool, tangy cream that rounds out the salt
- Baerii Sturgeon Caviar (Poland) — Same species, different farm: compare the mild Classic with the fuller Poland Baerii
To drink: A dry Champagne or a crisp, dry sparkling wine; chilled vodka also works.
