Consuming caviar is and has to remain an exceptional moment of pleasure. In the old days, caviar was simply consumed as a unique dish, with small toppings on top of the hand.
Lately, the necessity to find drinks and dishes as an accompaniment has risen.
The best accompanying drink must be present but discreet.
Champagne possesses these qualities: choose a dominant pinot with a fine bubble in order to favour the immediate revelation of the caviar’s flavours.
White vodka also possesses these qualities. Vodka in Russian means ‘little water’.
The ideal way is to consume the vodka frozen. This creates a thicker texture, while its consistently neutral taste will respect the taste of the caviar.
Finally, an elegant, crisp, dry white wine could also enhance your caviar experience.
