Caviar Price
As you may already know, caviar prices can run quite high. This is especially true about sturgeon caviar from the Caspian Sea and Black Sea. The names Beluga, Osetra, and Sevruga do signal hefty price tags. This is because the sturgeons that produce the caviar are threatened due to overfishing and pollution, and thus, the production of caviar is limited. Thus, Beluga caviar can cost around $5,000 per kilogram, with the most expensive caviar (a Beluga) selling for $25,000 a kilogram.
While the prices may be shocking to some people, rest assured that price is relative to the caviar source. Cheap caviar does exist. Because of the bans and regulations, alternative caviar types have risen to popularity. They are not as costly as the original Caspian sturgeon varieties; however, some types can be rather expensive. The bottom line is that you do not need to be apprehensive about having caviar at your next get together. You can find the delicacy at many price ranges.
