Oysters and merroir
Due to abundant plankton and the exceptional growing conditions on the Irish coast, Irish oysters have a high meat content. Wild Atlantic waters, clean freshwater rivers and minerals from an unspoilt landscape makes each Irish oyster a unique taste experience.
The constant flow of the Atlantic around the island also helps shape each oyster into a perfect tear-drop shape with a very strong shell and a smooth pearly white enamel void of defects or fissures.
Oysters from Ireland are rich and varied in taste with each bay, in which they are grown, contributing to this distinctive flavour. A combination of lingering sweet iodine flavours with a hint of nut to subtle citrus notes.
