SWITZERLAND-GASTRONOMY-FOOD-CAVIAR-CHRISTMAS-LUXURY
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY PEDRERO OSTERTAG
Tobias Felix, production manager at Tropenhaus Frutigen, a company using geothermal energy from the Loetschberg rail tunnel to produce exotic fruit, sturgeon meat and caviar, slits open a Siberian sturgeon to collect its eggs, on November 8, 2012 in the Alpine village of Frutigen. Around 35,000 greyish black Siberian sturgeon bask in 2,700 cubic metres (95,350 cubic feet) of pools filled with naturally heated Alpine spring water. This year, the company will produce up to 800 kilos (1,763 pounds) of caviar, selling on average at 3,000 Swiss francs ($3,232, 2,492 euros) a kilo, but it ultimately aims to have 60,000 sturgeon and an annual production of three tonnes of the black gold.
