Description
East meets West in the best possible way.
Known for their firm, full meats and unique synthesis of brine and sweetness, our Totten Inlet Virginicas are regarded as some of the finest oysters around. Virginicas were originally found only on the reefs of the Atlantic Coast, at depths of 8-25 feet, before being introduced to the Pacific Coast in the 1890s. Notoriously finicky in our waters, they only thrive on the beaches of Totten Inlet where the algae-rich waters from neighboring Little Skookum inlet mix with the deeper waters of Puget Sound allowing these oysters to develop their distinct and sought-after flavor profile.
Awarded Best Flavor at the East Coast Shellfish Growers Association competition, our Totten Inlet Virginica oysters are celebrated for their exceptional taste.
Quantity: 30 count
Flavor Profile: Crisp with a firm texture and heavy briny flavors, which lead to a buttery taste, with a hint of sweetness at the finish.

Virginica Oysters
Arrived on the promised date and were fresh and delicious. Have had them many times in Pioneer Square and these were just as fresh and good tasting.
Totten Inlet Virginia Oysters.
First- and very important - the shipping and packaging was amazing! One day and the ice was still frozen. So you know they are safe. Second - easy to shuck. Third- firm and tasty. We did shooters with cocktail sauce.
