Imperial Beluga – 500g (3.0mm – 3.1mm)

Dr Import proudly presents its Imperial Beluga Caviar – 500g (3.0mm – 3.1mm) — a refined and highly sought-after expression of the legendary Huso huso sturgeon from the southern Caspian Sea. Recognised worldwide for its silky texture, refined complexity, and iconic flavour, Beluga caviar stands at the peak of culinary luxury. This Imperial grade features carefully selected pearls measuring between 3.0mm and 3.1mm, offering remarkable uniformity, balance, and elegance. Each 500g tin showcases this prized calibration, representing one of the most traditional and admired Imperial size profiles.

The grains present the classic Beluga colour palette: soft pearl-grey, subtle silver, and gentle charcoal hues, each glowing with the natural sheen characteristic of true Iranian origin. Every pearl is evaluated for its shape, consistency, clarity, and lustre, ensuring a flawless presentation across every 500g portion. The membrane is thin and silky, releasing a buttery richness that spreads evenly and cleanly across the palate.

The flavour profile is balanced, structured, and distinctly Beluga. It begins softly with mild creaminess, followed by light salinity and refined marine notes. A clean mineral finish emerges gracefully, accompanied by subtle umami undertones that enhance depth without overpowering. This harmonious progression makes the 3.0–3.1mm grade particularly versatile — equally suitable for pure tasting, fine dining, or luxurious pairings.

Our Iranian partners operate under rigorous ethical and sustainable cultivation standards designed to safeguard the Huso huso species while preserving the integrity of Persian caviar heritage. Their practices prioritise water purity, sturgeon welfare, and careful maturation, ensuring consistency from harvest to export.

Following harvesting, the roe is hand-graded with exceptional precision. Only pearls within the exact 3.0mm–3.1mm calibration are selected for this Imperial grade. The caviar is lightly salted using traditional Persian methods and sealed under controlled temperatures to maintain peak freshness. Through Dr Import’s Direct Purchase Model, every 500g tin benefits from full traceability and uncompromised quality from farm to delivery.

Celebrated by Michelin-level chefs, high-end retailers, and connoisseurs who appreciate consistency and nuance, Imperial Beluga Caviar – 500g (3.0mm – 3.1mm) represents a perfect union of refinement, maturity, and Persian excellence.
