Detailed Information
Fine de Claire oysters undergo a finishing process in claires, where they are held in mineral-rich coastal ponds after harvesting. This maturation method allows the oysters to refine their flavor and develop a clean, well-balanced taste with subtle mineral notes.
Size N°1 oysters are considered large, providing a substantial portion with firm texture and a smooth, delicate finish. Their balanced salinity and refined character make them suitable for raw consumption, commonly served on ice with simple accompaniments such as lemon or shallot vinegar.
