Sustainability
SEATTLE CAVIAR ALWAYS STRIVES TO INCORPORATE SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES.
OUR POLICIES ENHANCE OUR PRODUCTS, BUSINESS AND COMMUNITY.
Growing Conditions
One of the key steps in our procurement process is to investigate the growing conditions for each species. With aquaculture production, we study the feed that is used. With wild or farmed, we address questions related to “where it swam, what it was fed.”
Our Promise
We personally investigate our sources in tandem with the Marine Stewardship Council and the Conference on Trade in Endangered Species to certify our sources and the chain of custody.
Today there are 20 countries producing “farm raised” caviar. Seattle Caviar Company has sourced and tested production from over 80% of these countries. Our testing confirmed that North American caviars are more consistent than any offered from other distant producers.
INGREDIENTS
Roe and salt.
There are no additives, growth hormones, GMO’s, or antibiotics in the feed or farms.
