Holiday Release: The Caviar Box | Ten Years

$38.00

Nobody eats caviar on a Tuesday. Caviar is for the night you want to mark: the promotion, the engagement, the New Year, the ten-year anniversary. It has never been an everyday food. It's a toast in edible form, and the whole ritual is built around slowing down and making the moment last.

Traditionally, caviar arrives with a supporting cast: something neutral and warm to carry it (blini, or toast points), a cool, tangy dollop of crème fraîche to soften the salt, and a glass of something sparkling to cut through the richness and reset your palate for the next bite.

We built the box around that ritual, then gave it a Grotto twist.

Snowville A2 Crème Fraîche is your cool and cultured companion. Rich without heaviness, with just enough tang to make the whole bite shine. Angel Oak Cold Smoked Salmon is the classic caviar sidekick: silky, delicately smoky, and perfect piled onto a chip. Smoked Trout Caviar is the star. Glossy little pearls of cold-smoked trout roe with a whisper of wood fire and a satisfying pop on the tongue. And because the tradition calls for blini to serve, we are offering a fun alternative: Torres Extra Virgin Olive Oil Potato Chips. Crisp, salty, and full of flavor.

Crème fraîche, salmon, roe, and a chip that tastes like celebration. Build a bite. Raise a glass. Ten years in, we think that's the right way to say thank you. Celebrate with us!

Holiday Release: The Caviar Box | Ten Years

$38.00

Long Description

We partnered with Carr Valley Cheese of La Valle, Wisconsin, a family-owned creamery with roots reaching back over a century, now run by fourth-generation cheesemaker Sid Cook. Carr Valley has spent generations perfecting the art of small-batch, handcrafted cheese, quietly becoming one of the most decorated creameries in the country along the way. When we asked them to create something just for our holiday collection, Carr Valley happily accepted the challenge.
The result is Sage Frost: a delicate, bloomy-rind brie adorned with fresh,fragrant sage, as if it had been caught mid-snowfall.
Cut into it and the rind gives way to a soft, ivory paste that's rich and yielding, almost custardy at the right temperature. The sage isn't just decoration, it adds an earthy, slightly peppery aroma that balances the brie's buttery sweetness with a savory, herbal note. Expect flavors of brown butter, toasted herbs, and a hint of pine. The finish is soft and lingering, mellow and mushroomy, with a gentle sage note that will remind you of coming in from the cold to the scents of a warm kitchen in full Holiday mode.
