Yasa Caviar, the premium caviar produced by Emirates AquaTech was debuted last night at a private event which was held at the Emirates Palace under the patronage and in the presence of His Highness Sheikh Hamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of the Crown Prince’s Court.
With a maximum capacity to produce 35 metric tons of caviar and 700 tons of sturgeon meat per year, Emirates AquaTech has the unrivalled ability to produce fresh Siberian caviar year round.
