The product is supplied chilled in a box containing 12 pieces, suitable for appetizers or seafood tastings.

Detailed Information

Fine de Claire oysters undergo a finishing stage in claires, shallow coastal ponds where the oysters mature after harvesting. This process allows them to develop a refined flavor profile with balanced salinity and subtle mineral notes.

Size N°4 oysters are smaller and appreciated for their tender texture and lighter portion size. Their delicate marine flavor makes them suitable for raw consumption, commonly served on ice with simple accompaniments such as lemon wedges or shallot vinegar.
