Conditions at the Riofrío sturgeon farm are ideal for the fish, which are exclusively fed on organic vegetables and fishmeat sustainably sourced in a natural environment.
“Sturgeon have a very slow metabolism and growth rate. They are not a breed for impatient people. We don’t accelerate the process in any way, letting the animal produce the caviar as it would do in nature,” explains Ignacio Alba Alejandre, a veterinarian at Caviar Riofrío.
