- KOBE CAVIAR Project Story -
1.Why caviar?
Bread City Kobe × Caviar Butter
Simply spread on freshly baked baguette or brioche for a luxurious bite.
Kobe Beef × Kobe Caviar
The rich taste of Kobe beef with the delicate saltiness of caviar — a sublime pairing.
Kobe has a world - renowned food culture represented by Kobe beef, western confections, and bread.
Caviar — one of the world’s three great delicacies — has rarity and high added value, making it suitable as a new industry for Kobe’s future.
2.What Makes Kobe Caviar Different
Rather than just selling caviar, the project aims to nurture caviar as a new industry born in Kobe.
Initially, carefully selected domestic caviar is provided under the Kobe brand, with plans to build an original Kobe production facility in the future.
3.Why Kobe’s Caviar?
Kobe’s history as a port city has fostered its food culture. Caviar is promoted not only as a luxury ingredient but also in harmony with Kobe beef and bread culture, creating unique experiences only possible in Kobe.
