Chilled Oyster Idéale N°3 by Huîtres Hervé are cultivated French oysters supplied in a box containing 96 pieces. Harvested in France and delivered chilled to maintain freshness, these oysters are graded as size N°3, a commonly used medium size for raw oyster service. The larger box format is suitable for restaurants, catering services, and seafood platters requiring higher quantities.

Detailed Information

Oysters classified as N°3 offer a balanced shell size with well-developed flesh and a firm, juicy texture. They typically present a clean marine flavor with light saline notes and subtle mineral characteristics associated with oysters cultivated in French coastal waters.

The Idéale oysters are grown in controlled marine environments that allow gradual shell development and consistent meat quality. Their medium size makes them particularly suitable for classic raw oyster presentations, seafood platters, or service with lemon wedges and mignonette sauce.
