Product Description 

Hackleback (a.k.a. shovelnose) is the last wild-caught sturgeon caviar in North America. Being the world's smallest sturgeon, Hackleback produces small caviar that is almost jet black in color. It makes up for its smaller size with a very pleasing firm texture and clean, mild flavor.

Our Hackleback Caviar is available to buy online for overnight delivery to your door. 

We also stock our caviar at the SoPo Seafood Market and Raw Bar.

You can enjoy Hackleback on a blini with a small dollop of crème fraiche. It is also common to see Hackleback caviar being enjoy atop Maine oysters. A small amount of caviar placed gently on a freshly shucked oyster makes for a very enjoyable bite.

Hackleback, a great first time caviar

If you are new to the world of caviar we think Hackleback is a great choice. 

Compared to other sturgeon caviar out there, Hackleback is very affordable. You will not break the bank with this caviar but you will still get the true high-quality caviar experience. 

Again, the quality of Hackleback is high. While it is common to pair Hackleback with a blini or creme fraiche, you could eat this caviar right off a spoon and still enjoy it immensely. 

Of course, you pay for what you get. If you are looking for a mind blowing caviar that you could eat right off of a mother of pearl spoon and it melts on your tongue like butter, then you may want to look at our Osetra Caviar. If you are looking for a great value and equally good quality, then definitely consider this American caught offering.

Order Hackleback Caviar online for overnight shipping, local delivery, or curbside pickup here in Maine. 

We ship our caviar via next-day priority overnight delivery. Buy your caviar online before 8 AM Monday-Thursday and receive it the next day! Future/custom delivery dates can be selected at checkout.

Please note: We pack and prepare all orders the day of shipping to ensure quality and freshness.

Serving & Storing Caviar

    If you are new to caviar and are unsure how to store it when you receive it, give our caviar storage and serving tips a read. 

    When ordering caviar keep in mind that 1 ounce is a typical serving for one person, two ounces per person is a generous portion and anything over that is indulgent.

    "Impossible, up to this point, to get fresh seafood where I live. After someone I know recommended SoPo Seafood, I went all in with oysters, sushi grade salmon and sea scallops, sea urchin, halibut, and lobster tails. Simply put, it took me back to a seaside East Coast restaurant. I can finally eat high quality, fresh seafood in my landlocked state almost at will!" - Rafael V

    "I have to say 5 stars because of the quality of the Haddock was excellent. The way the fish is packed keeps it fresh from Maine to North Carolina overnight. For us, it's well worth the money. We are returning customers and we'll be back soon buying more haddock for sure." - Michael M
