Our Story

Past, Present, and Future

Sterling Caviar started in 1988 as Stolt Sea Farm California, the first to farm raise the world-famous American white sturgeon, the fish from which our caviar is derived. In 2006, our name changed to Sterling Caviar and from there the story of the worldwide recognition of Sterling began. Today, Sterling Caviar is the leader in sustainable sturgeon farming and caviar production. Our innovative land-based farms are consistently recognized for their sustainable farming practices and long-term protection of the species. We are honored to supply the most discerning chefs and provide unique epicurean experiences to caviar enthusiasts both in the U.S. and throughout the world.

From Farm to Palate

Raising Perfection, Sustainably.

Our caviar is harvested from the renowned American White Sturgeon (Acipenser Transmontanus), native to North America’s coastal rivers. Sustainably raised, the sturgeon is carefully nurtured to maturity over 7-10 years. Once harvested, the caviar roe is delicately processed, packed, then cured in order to produce world-class caviar.
