Great elevated dining addition

Ordered for a small rooftop dinner. Jar arrived in perfect shape and was beautifully labeled. Clean, rich roe with gentle pop and subtle salt undertones. Texture luxurious without being heavy. Pairing instructions online were helpful. Great choice for elevating meals at home with a touch of class.

Not up to premium grade

Paid extra for ?reserve? label. The palate-obvious qualities were missing?no clean pop, no sweetness, texture too soft. Felt generic and over salted. I expected luxury; got average. Their refund policy isn?t transparent, support was slow. Needs quality upgrade or honest rebranding.

Delightful surprise

Not familiar with caviar, but this was gentle on the palate. Friendly customer service and clear shipping updates. Will be back for another order.

Luxurious flavor balance

The caviar arrived in pristine condition, packed with ice and insulated well. On tasting, each grain had a gentle pop and a silky mouthfeel. The briny salinity was balanced by a subtle sweetness. Service included clear tracking information. For the price paid, this delivers a genuine luxury feel. Will host again just to serve this.

Unforgettable delight

Caviar showed care from packaging to palate. Each grain glistened with firm plumpness and gave a rich buttery pop. Taste progression?sea brine, sweet finish, soft nuttiness?was impressive. Served at a family celebration and got lots of praise. Packaging and customs guidance were spot-on. Will reorder.

Packaging alone impressed

The box arrived well?insulated and cold enough. Unfortunately, inside the caviar had discolored spots and a metallic aftertaste. Tried contacting support about exchanging but got generic responses that led nowhere. Felt let down after spending over $150. The website?s glowing descriptions didn?t match reality. A shame because their delivery and insulation systems work well?it?s the product that needs serious attention.

Just average

Bulk ordered for party; guests polite but not impressed. Quality could be elevated.


img 4/5.0 04, Apr 2025

Special occasion hit

Bought for anniversary dinner. Caviar added elegance and depth to our meal. Texture was smooth and the taste pleasant. Communication could be slightly faster, but overall it was worth the wait.


img 2/5.0 13, Mar 2025

Disappoints expectations

Website hype was strong, but caviar tasted watered down.


img 2/5.0 27, Feb 2025

Tainted and unsubtle taste

Opened the jar: roe looked fine, but smelled overly fishy. Tried a small taste?harsh, not balanced, with chemical lingering notes. I followed serving tips but couldn?t mask the off taste. After contacting service, was told they?d investigate but nothing happened. Disillusioned at the thought of pristine, ocean?fresh caviar being so off.


img 5/5.0 08, Feb 2025

Elegant and flavorful

Blackriver?s caviar elevated a quiet dinner. Texture perfect, flavor delicate yet rich. Packaging thoughtful with clear labeling. Highly appreciated the attention to detail.


img 3/5.0 23, Jan 2025

Service helpful

Support answered fast but couldn?t improve the bland flavor.


img 4/5.0 07, Jan 2025

Lovely texture

Roe had a satisfying pop and clean finish. Prices felt fair. Wish there were more photo details of portion sizes. Good overall.


img 5/5.0 22, Dec 2024

Remarkable gourmet quality

Served at a small gathering, it stole the show. Roe texture was perfect?firm yet creamy. Flavor had layers: mild brine, ocean sweetness, and a gentle nutty finish. Gift-worthy presentation. Fast shipping and intact packaging. Planning a return for special celebrations.


img 4/5.0 03, Dec 2024

Good value

Caviar tasted fresh, not overly salty. Shipping cost a bit high but understandable. Packaging held temperatures well.


img 2/5.0 05, Nov 2024

Texture was soft

Roe didn?t pop properly?felt dense. Taste fine but texture dull.


img 5/5.0 23, Oct 2024

Highly refined taste journey

From the moment the package landed, it felt premium. Touch?temperature gel remained cold and packaging intact. First spoonful delivered a silky sensation, a clean briny note, soft butter hint, and complex depth. Served at cocktail hour, it sparked positive feedback from friends and family. Support provided clear serving guidance including pairing tips. Transparent grade info and clear seals inspired trust. A purchase I?m glad I made and will repeat for upscale gatherings.


img 1/5.0 10, Oct 2024

Soggy texture, bland taste

Caviar had lost firmness and burst too easily. Taste was mild with a dull seawater note. Foam had formed under lid?possible freshness issue. They offered discount code but not refund for product I couldn?t eat. Packaging and delivery were fine, but product quality is key and this was lacking.


img 2/5.0 17, Sep 2024

Overpriced and bland

Ordered premium tin advertised as ?select grade.? What arrived lacked the sharp brine and clean pop described. Taste was dull, slightly oxidized, and not enjoyable. Felt like an overpriced jar of roe. Support was polite but unhelpful in offering a fair solution. They credited shipping cost only, not the full product price. Not confident I?d buy again.


img 1/5.0 01, Sep 2024

Sour aftertaste

A sour note lingered. Might be spoiled. Won?t reorder.


img 4/5.0 28, Aug 2024

Smooth process, tasty results

Delivery was fast and communication clear. The texture was smooth and flavor layered. Would like a slight improvement on packaging insulation, but overall very pleased.


img 3/5.0 18, Jul 2024

Could be fresher

Mild taste with slight brininess. Not bursting with flavor.


img 5/5.0 19, Jun 2024

Impressive consistency

Ordered twice?both jars matched in quality. Firm roe, smooth finish, and pleasant salt balance. Packaging reliable. Felt transparent and trustworthy. Looking forward to exploring their other grades.


img 3/5.0 09, Jun 2024

Decent effort

Flavor was okay, though a bit mild. Tried recommendations from the site; helpful but could be more detailed. Solid entry in the world of caviar.


img 5/5.0 23, May 2024

Ultimate gourmet indulgence

This caviar arrived in a sturdy, insulated box with extra ice and a temperature strip on top?very reassuring for freshness. Upon opening, the grains glistened beautifully and offered a refined pop. Taste layers included ocean brine, mild buttery sweetness, and a delightfully subtle nutty finish. Texture balanced delicacy and firmness without being grainy. Paired well with chilled vodka and blinis. Support answered provenance questions quickly and even shared serving suggestions. Every step felt carefully thought-out, from packaging to palate. Will definitely return for future celebrations.


img 1/5.0 02, May 2024

Promotional text misleading

Website phrases like ocean?fresh and carefully farmed sounded great. Reality was a jar with inconsistent quality?some intact roe, some burst or dull. Flavor felt muddied. Support offered only coupons rather than refund. Not good value for money. Will remove from future gift consideration until quality is consistent.


img 2/5.0 26, Apr 2024

Not worth full price

Quality didn?t match cost. Solid packaging but the roe lacked punch.


img 1/5.0 21, Mar 2024

Quality not as described

First order arrived quickly, but the caviar seemed mushy and lacked the firm pop I expected. The flavor was muddled, overly salty, and there was no subtle sea sweetness. Customer support responded slowly and offered only a partial refund. Website blurb talked up freshness but this batch felt stale. Packaging was adequate, but it doesn?t matter if the product inside is off. I?ve tried other brands with better firmness and taste at similar prices. Would like Blackriver to improve quality control and freshness checks.


img 5/5.0 09, Mar 2024

Premium ocean treasure

Box included two ice packs and insulated liner. Roe inside was firm and glowed. Flavor felt honest?ocean salt, cream, and a clean finish. Texture outshone other brands I?ve tried. Service responded fast when I asked about storage. A memorable luxury treat.


img 3/5.0 15, Feb 2024

Okay but not exciting

Delivery was quick and cold, but caviar flavor mild and texture inconsistent. Decent but not standout.


img 4/5.0 04, Feb 2024

Lovely introduction to caviar

First time trying caviar. This was approachable?not too salty or fishy. Packaging guided serving tips nicely. Solid introductory experience.


img 2/5.0 11, Jan 2024

Flavor a bit stale

Roe seemed past best-by date. Mild salt but no brightness. Support offered small credit.


img 5/5.0 06, Jan 2024

Memorable celebratory caviar

Bought to mark a promotion. Presentation and packaging set the tone even before tasting. Roe quality was top-tier: clean, flavorful, and soft when applied to blinis. Brief finishing notes of butter and ocean seal. Customer service followed up to ensure satisfaction. Every element reflected care. Highly satisfied.


img 2/5.0 27, Dec 2023

Misleading grade claim

The premium label didn?t deliver. First spoonful was meh with overly fishy back?taste. Not what upscale caviar enthusiasts would expect. Jar looked fine but depth of flavor missing. Asked about grade certification and got vague answers. They talk the talk, but source and quality control need transparency and improvement.


img 4/5.0 04, Dec 2023

Elegant luxury gift

Gifting to parents went extremely well. Box presentation was sleek, and jar came with a velvet ribbon?simple yet charming. On tasting, the roe had gentle texture, that classic caviar pop, slight sea salinity, and a faint creamy finish. Not the loudest flavor I?ve had, but elegantly restrained. Delivery was punctual, packaging intact, and tracking easy. For special moments, it hits the mark.


img 5/5.0 30, Nov 2023

Well?balanced flavor

Notes of brine and sweet lingered nicely. Fine packaging and respectful handling. A standout quality for the price point.


img 4/5.0 11, Nov 2023

Delightful splurge

For a mid?week treat, this caviar was just right. Packaging professional, product tasted fresh. Could improve portion size pics online. Support helpful when asked about storage tips. Solid experience that felt like small indulgence.


img 1/5.0 19, Oct 2023

Disheartening experience

Anticipation was high, but disappointment followed. The roe texture was past its prime, mushy, and sticky. Flavor was flat with an odd fishiness. The jar lid seal seemed loose. Asked for a refund or replacement, but received vague apologies and no resolution. Compared to other companies offering fresher, more vibrant roe, Blackriver fell short. I?m hesitant to ever try again unless improvements are made.


img 3/5.0 07, Oct 2023

Just acceptable

Taste wasn?t memorable, but it was edible. May try another supplier.


img 3/5.0 28, Sep 2023

Not horrible

Enjoyable but lacked excitement. Might try a different grade next time.


img 5/5.0 20, Sep 2023

Premium taste and service

Great product and customer support. Jar looked handsome, insulation effective. Caviar had gentle pop and lasting flavor. Truly enjoyable gourment purchase.


img 5/5.0 14, Sep 2023

Sophisticated delight in a jar

Sourcing feels transparent and quality consistent. Jar popped when opened, suggesting freshness. Roe had light firmness, gentle briny melt, and lingering silky taste. Pairings guide made serving a breeze. A surefire upgrade for upscale home dining.


img 5/5.0 02, Sep 2023

Elegant caviar experience

Beautiful presentation and smooth pop of roe. Perfect for a special evening. Could offer more size options, but product quality remains high.


img 4/5.0 30, Aug 2023

Trustworthy caviar experience

Jar came securely with ice. Upon tasting, roe offered a light pop and salty-sweet balance. Texture even and pleasing. Could use more education on the website about proper storage tips. Support team stepped in with helpful pointers. A reliable choice for occasional caviar consumers.


img 5/5.0 18, Aug 2023

Great gift option

Chosen for a friend?s birthday, arrived promptly and beautifully packaged. Friend loved the flavor and presentation?big hit!


img 5/5.0 13, Aug 2023

True caviar classic

Creamy texture, clean ocean flavor, light buttery aftertaste. Packaging and delivery were professional. Felt like a classic that won?t disappoint. Will gift this to others.


img 2/5.0 04, Aug 2023

Underwhelming purchase

Packaging professional, but taste fell flat. Lacked the briny pop I hoped for.


img 4/5.0 26, Jul 2023

Sophisticated treat

Packaging felt elegant and professional. Jar contents were carefully handled and flavorful, though I?d like a tad more brininess for my taste. Customer support answered questions on serving etiquette clearly. Nice touch with sourcing info included. Overall a refined choice and enjoyable purchase.


img 5/5.0 11, Jul 2023

Memorable dinner addition

Added flair to a small gathering. Guests commented on the smooth mouthfeel and clean taste. Very pleased with the overall experience.


img 2/5.0 14, Jun 2023

Slightly off taste

Jar looked fine but flavor was oddly fishy. Texture soft, not crisp. Service polite, but I?d expect better for price.


img 5/5.0 08, Jun 2023

Exceptional in every detail

The insulated box included visual cues for freshness and arrived intact. Jar seal popped slightly when opened?a good sign. Roe texture was soft but resilient, offering balanced, complex flavor: brine, sweet butter, and slight mineral finish. Every mouthful confirmed premium sourcing. Would purchase again for holiday entertaining or gifts.


img 3/5.0 26, May 2023

Packaging great

The box and insulation were top-notch, but the product itself was so-so.


img 5/5.0 14, May 2023

Exceeded expectations

Order arrived on time in great condition. Caviar tasted fresh and rich without the overly salty punch. Packaging was sturdy and elegant. A real treat worth trying again.


img 2/5.0 22, Apr 2023

Some jars uneven

In one jar roe was intact, in another half crushed. Not ideal.


img 1/5.0 15, Apr 2023

Texture ruined the meal

Served at dinner party, but texture ruined the experience. Roes were burst or too soft with a past?prime scent. Flavor was lackluster and overshadowed by saltiness. Website praises premium grade but I got second?rate quality. Reached out for refund; they stalled and never resolved properly. Will avoid this brand in the future.
