When it’s up to caviar, Beluga, Imperial ,Ossetra and Sevruga caviar are considered as the most known and expensive caviar due to their increasing demand and rare availability. Generally, caviar is an expensive delicacy which is processed, salted, non fertilized sturgeon roe. The most expensive caviar originates in Caspian Sea which is the largest salt water Sea. Nearly 85% of wild caviar originates from Caspian Sea. In the past, only Russian and Iranian caviar were more popular among the people. However, due to over fishing and pollution, Caspian Sea’s wild sturgeon caviar population and principally Beluga suddenly started to decline, so Beluga sturgeon was tagged as critically endangered by United States Fish and Wildlife Service and banned its fishing.
