Though sourced from the Mississippi and Missouri rivers instead of the Caspian Sea the American Hackleback Sturgeon offers all the same characteristics of flavor and texture as classic Russian caviars. One of the true North American sturgeons, its eggs boast the nuttiness, creamy texture, and buttery finish expected from premium caviar.
The roe of the American Hackleback is quite small in proportion, even smaller than Sevruga varieties, and range in color from dark grey to pearlescent black. With a soft and glossy envelope and a pronounced pop, their texture is one of the best. The number one choice for highly-rated chefs around the world, you're sure to love the taste and texture of Emperior American Hackleback caviar.
