TROFELIA Promoting Food is the official importer of Kaviari Paris caviar in Greece. With over 40 years of experience, the Maison Kaviari is known for sourcing the finest caviars directly from the source and maturing them under ideal conditions in their Paris laboratories.
Kaviari’s Philosophy
“Our goal is not to be everywhere, but to offer personalized service to professionals and individuals.”
Kaviari selects the best caviar and seafood directly from the source. The eggs are refined in Paris, packed in individually numbered tins, each one unique. Every tin is an invitation to savor; each flavor and aftertaste is a genuine experience. Once a symbol of the French art de vivre, caviar is now one of the country’s premier gourmet products.
Sturgeon Farming & Artisanal Craft
The process is long and demanding. Kaviari imposes strict quality standards on its partner farms. Despite growing into an internationally recognized house, it remains a small-scale, independent operation. Its artisanal methods, inherited from skilled Iranian masters, are preserved to ensure optimal ripening and production.
Creating the ideal ecosystem, selecting the right sturgeon, and waiting years for the roe to mature are key. Once mature, the roe is carefully harvested and processed by hand using precise techniques, ensuring top-tier quality. Kaviari enforces rigorous specifications related to water quality, feeding, natural maturation, and hygiene to protect the fish and preserve the quality of the final product.
Caviar Is More Than Fish Eggs
It’s about texture and flavor. Kaviari transforms the diverse origins of its caviar into a strength, with quality raw material as the key to success. The house works closely with chefs worldwide, earning its place in top gastronomic dishes.
Self-described as the “petites mains of chefs,” Kaviari provides haute cuisine in the way that petites mains (skilled artisans) enable haute couture. By selecting and maturing only the finest roe, Kaviari brings culinary artistry to the forefront.
Sustainability & Eco-Conscious Values
Kaviari remains committed to sustainability, adapting to modern consumer expectations and environmental responsibility. It’s a family-run business grounded in ethical practices, ensuring the long-term future of this rare delicacy.
Since its founding, the company has sought to reduce the ecological impact of its activities. Through its sustainable methods and value-based operations, caviar production aligns with an ethos of responsibility and care for the planet.
Farmed caviar, produced under the same artisanal standards as wild caviar, is a luxury of craftsmanship and a sensory celebration—sound, aroma, reflection, brilliance, and texture. Each sturgeon species offers flavors ranging from woody to briny, buttery to metallic, across a full flavor spectrum.

Helpful Tips
Temperature
Caviar should be served neither too cold nor too warm. Remove it from the container about 10 minutes before serving.
Utensils
Use mother-of-pearl or wooden spoons to avoid altering the taste. Avoid metal utensils.
Serving
Serve over a bed of ice or dry ice to maintain cool temperature. Avoid metal bowls. Do not stir the caviar to preserve texture and aroma.
Pairing
Champagne is a classic choice, enhancing freshness and balancing richness. Vodka is also traditional—its purity complements the delicate flavor.
Tasting
Connoisseurs may place a small amount on the crook of their thumb to warm it gently before tasting. Alternatively, simply enjoy a spoonful, letting the pearls burst on the palate.
