Couldn't load pickup availability
Tradition Elite has very large eggs that are silky and have elegant notes. Creamy, buttery flavors arrive first as hints of seaweed yield to a long, impressive clean finish. Tradition Elite exhibits deep umami flavors with added nuttiness. The taste of this caviar is perfectly balanced with round notes, combining delicate nuances of the sea with light, buttery flavors of pastry.
