Totten inlet virginicas
These are really tasty. I've ordered them three times and will continue to do so. Who knew getting oysters out here in the boonies would be so easy and so tasty.
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.

My all time favorite Bi-Valve. Buttery w/o being soft. Heaven on the half-shell. Product arrived in great shape. Packaging is superb, each Oyster is nestled in its own indentation. All were consumed a fast as we could chuck them.
Virginica
Everything from Taylor's arrived on time, well packed, fresh and delicious. We are long time customers and are never disappointed. The Virginicas are fat and briny, the essence of the sea
