Real caviar always consists of the cleaned and salted roe of various sturgeon subspecies; the most famous types of caviar are Sevruga caviar, Asetra caviar and of course the Beluga-Caviar.
Occasionally, the roe of other types of fish is also referred to as caviar: German caviar is made from sea hares, and there is salmon Lachs-Keta-Kavar and trout caviar is from salmon trout. Salmon caviar and trout caviar can be recognized by their natural reddish color and their large grain.

Discerning caviar connoisseurs and caviar dealers can order the finest caviar at www.kaviar.de. We have the varieties of sturgeon in our caviar shop Beluga, Asetra, Imperial (an Asetra selection) and Sevruga. 

Since 2006, SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR has been offering farmed caviar in addition to wild-caught caviar. We make sure that the sturgeons are reared in the breeding farms under natural conditions. SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR does not sell caviar from closed recirculation systems, as we strictly reject this type of factory farming . As a direct importer, we obtain our caviar varieties from the best countries in the world: Iran , Bulgaria, China, Italy, the USA and Russia . 
  

In addition to genuine caviar, you can also visit www.kaviar.de Lachs-Chain-Caviar and order trout caviar from the salmon trout (country of origin: France).

In accordance with EC Regulation 865/2006 (July 9th, 2006), last amended by EC Regulation 100/2008 (February 4th, 2008), SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR is registered with the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation under number DE-R12 as a caviar packaging company . The provisions made in the ordinances are in accordance with the resolutions of the CITES Conference of the Parties (Resolution Conf. 12.7 - rev. CoP 14, see www.cites.org): All subspecies of sturgeon are subject to the Washington Convention on Endangered Species (CITES - Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species). All parts of the fish, including the roe, are subject to CITES labeling and require a CITES export permit. 

Caviar jars (and other caviar containers) must be provided with a non-reusable label or band and numbered according to the export permit; this numbering must appear on the invoice/delivery documents. All caviar products that you can order in our online shop or via Ebay from SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR meet these requirements.

There are several ways to check the freshness of the caviar you have bought: When you open the (metal) caviar tin, there is fresh caviar in the tin - it does not stick to the lid and does not fall apart. In addition, fresh caviar pearls easily when you pass a spoon through the grain and smells neither fishy, ​​metal nor oily. Fresh caviar smells like salt water, the sea and nothing else.  

Fresh caviar is salted to extend its shelf life. Still, quality caviar never tastes overly salty; our caviar is always labeled "Malossol" - the Russian term for "lightly salted". The caviar is only salted to the extent necessary for a temporary shelf life. Vacuum-packed, fresh caviar has a shelf life of eight weeks , and pasteurization increases the shelf life to three months. After opening the packaging, keep refrigerated for a maximum of three days.   

Caviar is a very sensitive food and must always be sufficiently cooled. The original tins from the caviar producers are kept at an optimal temperature of -2°C for storage - high-quality caviar can be kept for up to a year. For resale, caviar is repackaged in smaller cans or similar under the strictest hygiene and temperature conditions. Always keep your caviar in the coldest part of your fridge, even at home; best - if available - in the 0° zone. Due to the salt content, temperatures around +/- 2°C are not harmful to the product. However, you cannot freeze fresh caviar, since the roe will burst when thawed; this affects the taste and consistency of the caviar.

The HACCP concept (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points Concept) was anchored at European level in the Food Hygiene Regulation in 1998, with EC Regulation 852/2004 making the application of the concept mandatory for all companies in the food sector. In this context, SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR has received the approval number DE BY 16020 EG. The HACCP concept was originally developed in the USA to ensure absolute safety for the production of astronaut food and includes, among other things, obligations for risk analysis, continuous monitoring, the provision of corrective measures and documentation of all processes.

SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR places high demands on its local suppliers and demands regular strict controls within the caviar production process; The sturgeons, their keeping conditions and feed are checked (in the case of farmed caviar), and the conditions and processes involved in caviar production are also strictly observed. In the case of wild catches, we ensure that the CITES decisions are followed and that no illegal fishing takes place. In addition, Mr. Sepehr Dad commissions regular laboratory tests from SGS Institut Fresenius GmbH for samples of the caviar types available from SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR (microbiology, veterinary drug residues, heavy metal residues).

All sturgeon species have been protected since 1997 and all sturgeon products may only be traded with a CITES permit. Sturgeon can be found in a wide variety of areas (but only in the northern hemisphere) and in many places the stocks have declined so dramatically that fishing bans have resulted. As a result, a large black market developed for smuggled caviar from illegal wild catches. SEPEHR DAD CAVIAR only offers caviar from licensed wild-caught caviar and meets all CITES requirements.

For a long time, sturgeons were considered unbreedable, the caviar from farmed production could not hold a candle to the caviar of wild sturgeons. Around the turn of the millennium, breeders finally succeeded in producing caviar of the same quality. In the meantime, even caviar connoisseurs find it difficult to notice the differences between wild-caught caviar and high-quality farmed caviar. At the end of 2006, after much deliberation, Mr. Sepehr Dad also decided to offer breeding caviar. At the beginning of 2008 he was able to visit a breeding farm in Bulgaria, which successfully raises both Asetra and Beluga sturgeon. Still skeptical at first, his last doubts were eliminated here: The fish live here under natural conditions in a lake that is of natural origin and is located in a nature reserve. It is up to 140 m deep, 42 km long and up to 6 km wide, the average water temperature is 24°C - optimal conditions for healthy rearing of the sturgeons, which can also find natural food here - the latter has an enormous effect on the quality of the caviar. The ecologically sustainable breeding of sturgeons is complex and takes about two to three times as long as in factory farming in closed recirculation systems. Mr. Sepehr Dad compares this type of housing with cage housing for chickens and strictly rejects it, since the fish are raised here without the natural cycles of day/night and the seasons. Breeding farms in natural biotopes accept higher production costs - not only to do justice to animal welfare, their caviar is of much higher quality.
