Caviar is sturgeon roe, usually salted. The delicate taste of caviar comes not only from the type of fish, but also what the fish eat and how they live. Our sturgeon are raised in pens in open, flowing water and are fed a natural diet. Caviar is known to aid in recovery and boost brain function and the immune system. It is high in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, selenium, iron, magnesium, and vitamin A. Doctors say its natural oils help promote healthy skin.

The possibilities are endless. We like to spoon some caviar on our eggs, toast at breakfast, or on the perfect creation. We like it scooped onto a potato chip or just straight from the tin. Recipes.

Keep the caviar sealed and in the coldest part of the refrigerator (not freezer). It is best stored at 28 to 36 degrees Fahrenheit. Unopened, the tin will stay fresh for up to six weeks. Once it is opened, try to finish the caviar within five days. We don’t recommend freezing the caviar. Our ice packs, however, can be refrozen and reused if you want to transport the caviar or other food.

Depending on how the caviar will be served, we suggest to account for at least 10g per person. This amount allows for a taste of the caviar typically paired with filling accoutrements, However, if the caviar is meant to be the focus of the event, we suggest at least 20g per person.

We offer different types of caviar which vary in taste, color and size. There is no ‘best’ option- it’s all up to personal preference. Check out the descriptions of each of our caviars listed here. for the different species and taste profiles. Or, sample a variety of different kinds with our duos, trios, and sample offerings. 

A typical rule of thumb with caviar is that the price point is reflective of the size and age of the sturgeon which produce the roe. More time and care in raising these fish reflect the size and price of the eggs. Read more about our Supreme Collection here.

PSC launched in August 2018. There’s historical significance to our name. NYC used to be one of the world’s largest producers of caviar in the 1800s. The Hudson river was once teeming with sturgeon and most of the caviar was processed on Pearl St. Before they made Manhattan bigger, pearl st used to be a lot closer to the water.
