The
best caviar in the world comes from
three species of sturgeon in the Caspian
Sea. Caviar (black "ikra"
in Russian) from each has its own
special characteristics.
Beluga:
Coming from the largest of
the Caspian sturgeon species, Beluga
caviar is light to dark gray in color
with large granules and a delicate
skin. The best and freshest Beluga
000 caviar is supplied directly from
Astrakhan in Russia.
Osetra:
These finest caviar is dark
brown to golden in color. Golden Osetra,
the most rare of sturgeon, produces
a limited quantity of light golden
eggs, sometimes referred to as "Royal
Caviar."
Sevruga:
These fish eggs are smaller,
with a fine dark gray color.

While
each variety of caviar has its own
aficionados, the umbrella term for
top quality caviar is the word Malossol
-- meaning "little salt"
in Russian. After being graded for
size and color by experts, the kaviar
is salted in order to keep it fresh.
This century-old method has yet to
be improved upon -- the Malossol
treatment allows the flavor of the
eggs to perk the palate while retaining
the freshness of the eggs for up to
three months. Caviar is the best gift
for all occasions!

Smoked
Salmon:
Scotland and Norway are world-famous
for their traditional oak-smoked salmon.
Cured in salt and sugar, salmon is
then oak-smoked to perfection in kilns
specially built for this purpose.
Finally salmon is trimmed and hand-sliced
by highly skilled staff to ensure
proper presentation. Scottish and
Norwegian smoked salmon are the obvious
choice wherever a rich flavor and
impeccable presentation are the prime
considerations.

Foie
Gras in French means
"plump liver," a
term used to describe a goose or duck
liver. This choice fowl from the Perigord
region is fed specified types of corn
in abundance, which accounts for its
unique flavor. Foie gras should be
cut into thin slices immediately prior
to serving. This allows its extraordinary
rich flavor to be preserved. One may
choose to serve foies gras with thin
slices of buttered toast and wine.
