Russian buyers take bait as Ireland’s first trout caviar ‘goes down a treat’
While the best-known form of caviar comes from sturgeon’s eggs, the trout variety has grown in global popularity in recent years. Goatsbridge owners Ger and Mags Kirwan are delighted with the Russian industry response at Bord Bia’s recent buyer showcase.
“We weren’t sure how the Russian visitors would respond to the Irish-made caviar, but the samples went down a treat with them,” Ms Kirwan said. “That is the ultimate accolade for us, and has given us confidence that we can achieve strong export sales as well.
