This allows us to deliver the highest quality oyster, safe to eat in their natural raw state as certified by New Zealand food safety officials.

Our pure, untainted coastal waters are naturally nutrient rich, requiring no additional feed to produce plump, deep cupped oysters with a fresh, clean taste and rare vitality.

New Zealand Pacific oysters (sp. Crassostrea Gigas) are deep shelled and evenly shaped producing plump meat and fresh, crisp flavours with a sweet creamy finish. They are farmed naturally in harbours throughout New Zealand’s Northland, Hauraki Gulf and Marlborough Sounds. These specially selected sites contain cool, pure, nutrient rich waters that grow a distinctly flavoured oyster perfectly suited for raw/sashimi applications.
