Sichuan Ya 'an caviar is produced in tianquan county, Ya 'an City.

on the one hand, the water quality here is in the forefront of the country and the first in the whole province all the year round. On the other hand, the melting water of ice and snow drained from high mountains has become the key factor for breeding sturgeon. Cold water resources+flowing water ecological culture have created a "one in a million" growth environment for sturgeon.

In order to produce high-quality caviar, in addition to high-quality growth environment, the feeding cost is also very high. These caviar are all taken from adult sturgeons with a body length of 2 meters and a weight of more than 2 kilograms. It takes ten years to sharpen a sword, and it takes seven to ten years for the sturgeon to reach adulthood.

In order to ensure delicious taste, it takes 15 minutes to make caviar, and 17 procedures are completed by hand, including killing fish, laparotomy, taking eggs, mixing with salt and canning. During this period, the concentration of salt, the intensity and time of stirring are all very particular, and the slightest difference will affect the elasticity and taste of fish eggs.

No pains, no gains. It is precisely because of these efforts that Tianquan's caviar has come to the world table. Today, Tianquan occupies 12% of the global market share of caviar, and 12 grams of every 1 grams of caviar in the world are produced in Tianquan.
