Canada makes its entry into the world of caviar
MONTREAL /CNW Telbec/ - After 8 years of development, the world's only farm raised short nose sturgeon crop (Acipenser Brevirostrum), has given its first commercial caviar production. Developed by a Canadian farm based in St John, New-Brunswick, the Acadian Gold also has the merit of being the first farm raised caviar in North America.
From its first harvest, this luxurious golden caviar is something Canadians can be proud about. Typically, the "Gold" variety was mostly found in 10% of the oscetra caviar harvested in the Caspian Sea. Its clean and long taste, its firm texture, as well as its golden shade make it a highly sought-after variety. This little golden luxury is now available here in North America, and fresher than ever. "I have been in the caviar business for 15 years, and I have tasted many different types of caviar, from various origins. As a proud promoter of Canadian products, I am amazed to see the kind of quality that has been reached with this farm raised caviar, now available on our tables within a couple of days of the harvest. We will certainly be the envy of caviar-enthusiastic countries" comments Bruno Marie, President of Marché Transatlantique.
This pioneering opens the door to the possibility, for Canada, to create its very own caviar culture. During its years of development by Mr Donald Breau and his team, the Acadian Gold caviar has generated a lot of anticipation by select tables. It is now possible to enjoy those Canadian "gems" in prestigious restaurants such as Leméac and Queen Elizabeth, in Montreal, Splendido and Canoe, in Toronto, Deep Cove Chalet, in British Columbia, as well as Bish in Nova Scotia. The Acadian Gold is proudly distributed in Canada, to restaurants and individuals, by Marché Transatlantique, as a feature product of the prestigious "Transatlantique Selection ."
For more than 15 years, Marché Transatlantique is distributing fine products and promoting Canadian delicacies around the world. The Acadian Gold caviar is available in 30gr glass jars, and can be shipped overnight anywhere in Canada by calling 1-800-394-3530.
