Kumamoto
On arrival about 20% dead in shell filled with mud
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

The Best
We ordered 40 of the Kumamoto Oysters for a wine dinner party and they were a huge hit. Most of our guests told us they we're the best oysters they have ever tried. With a simple mignonette they were absolutely fantastic, will definitely be ordering again.
Kumamoto Oysters, loved it !!!!!
We had never tasted this type oyster before so we was going to give it a try and we don't regret a second. The oyster arrived in time and was nice packed. I have to say this is the best oyster I have ever eaten. We ate it raw and we also put the on the grill, both ways it was very good. I will order Kumamoto oyster again.
