Rio Frio Caviar

Since the Caspian Sea beluga ban, we are on the quest for other caviar options. On Monday we mentioned Montana whitefish caviar, now from the Boston Herald we learn of a new Spanish option. Rio Frio (Cold River) is cultivated from organically fed, farm-raised sturgeon in the Grenada region of Spain.  Because the sturgeon are cataloged as beluga by CITES, the Convention of International Trade of Endangered Species it's a chance to get your beluga without going black market. Of course it will cost you. The Herald says it will be for sale in the Boston area for around $250 per ounce.
