Shigoku Oysters
Have been ordering the Shigokus for a couple years now. Arrive before the stated time and always fresh and delicious!
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.

These oysters are by far the best in the West. Taylor Shellfish does a great job with packaging and shipping. Made for a special father's day eating oysters with my teenage sons (who now fight me for every one).
Took Father's Day preparations into my own hand (didn't quite trust the urchins) and ordered the Shigoku oysters. They arrived timely in really great packaging. Popped one delicious oyster straight out of the package and stored the rest overnight in the fridge with no deterioration of quality. Ate every last one of them on the half shell the next day with a choice shallot/tarragon mignonette, fresh horseradish cocktail sauce, lemon, and South Carolina style hot sauce. Washed them down with a crisp 2018 Zenith Vineyard Auxerrois from Ore Winery. Absolute heaven!!! Will definitely order again.
