Rocky Pass Oysters

Rocky Pass oysters are sourced through the Northernmost of the Pacific oyster’s range, Frederick Sound, Alaska.  The cold Alaskan waters lend the Rocky Pass a high level of salinity that is quite atypical of the species.  Flavors are more analogous to that of a North Atlantic oyster than a Pacific.  A delicate melon start gives way to a briny finish in this variety.  Shells are both dense, and deeply fluted, creating an easy to shuck, and aesthetically pleasing oyster.
