5 Pitstops of Flavour

Eating an oyster is a gastronomic experience with five distinctive flavour pitstops:

Brine

‘Briny’ or ‘oceanic’ is the salty flavour found in an oyster and is the first pit-stop on your oyster journey. When an oyster is harvested, it retains salt water to regulate its environment and maintain condition whilst out of the water. The intensity of the brine is determined by the salinity of the marine environment from which the oyster is harvested.

Creaminess

Mineralisation

Sweetness
