Shigoku oysters are innovative Pacific oysters grown in float bags that rise and fall with the tides, gently tumbling the oysters. This process mimics a good workout for oysters, strengthening their adductor muscles and resulting in firm, plump meat and a deep, clean cup.
Shigoku means "ultimate” in Japanese, and we think these unique oysters fit the bill.
Quantity: 30 count
Flavor Profile: Strong brininess with a sweet finish and firm, plump texture.
Size: approximately a 2 - 2.75 inch shell.
I love the deep shell of these oysters. However they lack consistency. 7 shells out of 40 where open and dried out and some that were close had very little liquid in them. Some were very good however but probably won't buy this oyster again. The store itself does an excellent job packing and arrives FedEx NDA early morning delivery.
These were perfect oysters with deep cups and a nice flat lid. Packaged extremely well. I preferred these to the Kumamoto because they weren't as intensely salty and were more sweet and melony. Some of them were unbelievably sweet! I would definitely get them again
First venture into online oyster ordering. Wow!! Excellent quality, well packaged, timely delivery...Happy customer sure to return.
