I’ve bought it several times. It lasts forever, it tastes great, and it arrives promptly. I love the taste, but I discovered it when I was searching for a reliable, cheap source of omega-3s, which are hard to come by. This turned out to be cheaper than buying bpa-free canned sardines, and it’s a lot more versatile. Also, it’s even lower on the food-chain than sardines, so even less chance of mercury! It’s also high in selenium and vitamin D. This is tasty, healthy, and a good quality. I highly recommend it. I just eat a little plain, It’s like a sea-flavored cheese- but if you grate it into other food, it’s a very subtle flavor and just enhances whatever you add it to. Mmmm! Review: I’ve tried many other other brands but this is it. - I love bottarga and I’ve tried many brands but this is my favorite. The bottarga is always moist and flavorful. It has the clean taste of the sea and is wonderful to use for spaghetti bottarga. It’s not cheap but, served this way, it’s an affordable luxury that I keep coming back to. ## Features - AUTHENTIC BOTTARGA DI MUGGINE FROM SARDINIA – Traditional Italian bottarga made from cured grey mullet roe, produced in Sardinia using classic Mediterranean curing methods for rich flavor and firm texture. - PREMIUM CURED MULLET ROE – Whole dried fish roe carefully salted, pressed, and aged for months to develop the intense savory taste that makes bottarga one of the most valued Italian gourmet ingredients. - PERFECT FOR PASTA, SEAFOOD AND RISOTTO – Slice, shave, or grate bottarga over pasta, fish, salads, eggs, or risotto to add natural umami flavor typical of Sardinian and Mediterranean cuisine. - TRADITIONAL ITALIAN GOURMET PRODUCT – Bottarga is a classic specialty food of Italy, also known as dried fish roe or mullet roe, widely used in authentic Italian and restaurant cooking. - VACUUM SEALED FOR FRESHNESS – Whole bottarga is vacuum packed to preserve aroma, texture, and quality, keeping the product fresh and ready to use. - PRODUCT OF ITALY – Imported bottarga di muggine from Sardinia, made following traditional methods without artificial additives, ideal for gourmet recipes and Mediterranean dishes. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005STWST4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #229,274 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #60 in Canned & Packaged Caviars & Roes | | Brand | Smeralda | | Brand Name | Smeralda | | Container Type | Pouch | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 38 Reviews | | Item Form | Stick, found in image | | Item Package Weight | 15.9 ounces | | Number of Pieces | 3 | | Package Weight | 15.9 ounces | | Size | 5 Ounce (Pack of 3) | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Smeralda - **Item Form:** Stick, found in image - **Number of Pieces:** 3 - **Package Weight:** 15.9 ounces ## Images ![Smeralda Italian Whole Bottarga Grey Mullet Roe from Sardinia 5 Ounce - Pack of 3 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51AkRKTsigL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality and delicious , also a great natural source of omega 3s, selenium and vitamin D! *by M***M on August 16, 2019* It’s a great product.

It was quite expensive, but we ordered it anyway. It arrived a day earlier than promised and was very well insulated, which was a good thing, since the ice pack had warmed and the botarga was barely cool. Next time, I will pay for two-day shipping if Prime isn't available. In any case, the botarga was excellent and were very happy with it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Smeralda Italian Whole Bottarga Grey Mullet Roe from Sardinia 5 Ounce - Pack of 3 - "Sardinian Gold" - Authentic Sardinian Bottarga/Kosher - Approx. 6.54oz - Mr Moris Bottarga Premium Quality Kosher Made in Italy (Grey Mullet Roe) (Medium - 120Gr / 4.2Oz ca) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/9555878-smeralda-italian-whole-bottarga-grey-mullet-roe-from-sardinia-5](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/9555878-smeralda-italian-whole-bottarga-grey-mullet-roe-from-sardinia-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-10-01*
