Best Oysters Anywhere
Our family and friends love the Kumamoto Oysters. They arrive overnight and are so fresh and delicious. So lucky to be able to get these from Taylor Shellfish
Description
Prized for their sweet honeydew like meat brimming with sweet liquor, Kumos are loved for their clean and fruity aromas.
Grown from rare, mid-century heirloom seeds dating back to the original Japanese imports of the 1940s. Slow-grown and a labor of love these Japanese natives grow significantly slower than most oysters (approximately 3-5 years!), but some things in life are worth the wait, and Kumos are one of them!
Petite but deeply satisfying, these oysters measure approximately 1-2 inches and offer a consistently delicious oyster on the half shell.
Quantity: 30 count
Flavor Profile: Bright, sweet flavors with a cucumber finish.
Size: Approximately 1 - 2 inch shell

Made for an awesome get together
Delivery - fast and perfect Oysters were pretty clean on the outside which was nice. Only one oyster had a large amount of sand/muck inside. All of the others Tasted great! Only thing that kept them from 5 * (and I almost did anyway) was the wooden box. Waste of $25 if you ask me. Thought I’d have a nice momento, but the 75 cent hinges and latch broke the first time the lid shut down. Didn’t ruin the experience but was disappointed. Will absolutely be utilizing Taylor Shellfish in the future. #bestcoast
Kumamoto
Taylor’s quality of shellfish is always great, and that includes shipping them from coast to coast during a week of coast to coast snowstorms! A nod also goes out to UPS on that one. Kumamotos are a must for any oyster party. They’re tiny (but one of Taylor’s small oyster knives if you don’t have one), dainty, packed with flavor. A good oyster for both the connoisseur and beginner. While I use little or no sauce, a light mignonette pairs nicely, or better yet, dress them with a tiny bit of shallot, creme fraiche and caviar.
