- Wild Louisiana Bowfin
- ️ Earthy, Spicy, Tangy Flavor
- Holds Up on Cooked Dishes
Though not sturgeons, this ancient freshwater species produces grains that are small in size, firm and brown to jet black in color. Unlike sturgeon, Bowfin caviar will turn red if heated. These are perfect to top on cooked dishes. Bowfin Caviar can be used in a multitude of recipes and often served as an appetizer. Generously top bowfin caviar on top of a blini with creme fraiche for an easy yet elegant starter.
We've been shipping caviar safely to thousands of customers for decades. Shipped in well-insulated packages with plenty of ice packs for maximum freshness.
We care deeply about our customers and want you to be 100% satisfied. Questions or concerns? Please reach out to enjoy@kolikof.com.
Serve well chilled, straight from the tin set over ice. Use a non-metallic spoon (mother-of-pearl is included) — metal can dull the flavor. Enjoy on its own, on the back of the hand, or with blini and crème fraîche, finely chopped egg, and chives.

Bold, earthy, and briny — a wild American roe
Every yield is hand-sampled before it's packed. Here's the flavor and texture profile of our Bowfin Caviar - Malossol.
The Caviar Collection
The perfect tasting in three steps
Caviar rewards a little ceremony. Here's how to get the most from every pearl.
Chill
Keep the tin nestled in ice and open it just before serving. Caviar is at its best served cold, never room temperature.
Spoon
Use the included Mother-of-Pearl spoon — never metal, which can bruise the pearls and add a tinny note. Lift a small, generous mound.
Savor
Roll the pearls across your palate, then press gently to release a clean burst of the sea. Take your time — this is gastronomy.

A few of the reasons caviar lovers choose Kolikof over the alternatives.
The place to start — and to stay
If you're choosing one caviar, make it this one.
The Classic
The benchmark by which other caviars are judged — nutty, buttery, and unmistakably refined.
The Versatile One
Firm enough to shine on its own, balanced enough to elevate blini, eggs, pasta, or a simple potato. Caviar plays beautifully across the whole table.
The Crowd-Pleaser
From a quiet two at home to a table of eight, our sizes scale from a single 28g tin to a full kilo — making Caviar the effortless centerpiece of any occasion.
If I don't personally love it, I won't sell it. And I'm picky.
Loved more than the famous brands
