Beluga caviar is considered to be the best and most expensive caviar in the world. The roe which makes up this type of caviar come from the Beluga sturgeon which is just one of many sturgeons that are found in the Caspian Sea. Sadly they are an endangered species and their stocks are currently extremely low. This is in part due to illegal poaching but also due to overconsumption. In recent times, the average haul of this fish is about one hundred per year.

Black Caviar Guide
Regular black caviar is roe or mature eggs harvested from the sturgeon which is native to the Caspian Sea. All the bordering countries (Azerbaijan, Iran, Russia, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan) collect caviar according to agreed quotas. Since the 1970s, sturgeon population levels have fallen to around 90% of former levels, and that resulted in the implementations of the quotas. Unfortunately, however, there is now a roaring black market in black caviar, and organised crime rings smuggle illegaly poached caviar out of the country and sell it for as little as half the market price of the legally sold product.
