Celebrating this day has the potential to become very expensive.
Caviar itself are a type salt-cured roe - or fish eggs. To be called caviar, the fish eggs must come from the sturgeon, and roe from any other type of fish are a caviar substitute. This doesn't stop some of these substitutes as being advertised and sold as caviar.
Traditionally, caviar comes from wild sturgeon in the Black and Caspian Seas, the species of which are Beluga, Ossetra and Sevruga, although there are other types of sturgeon such as the Sterlet.
Caviar has long been associated with Russia, and its precursor and successor states, but it is also available from other countries, with Iranian caviar being some of the most expensive.
True caviar is expensive anyway and, due to this expense, has long been linked with royalty and wealth.
