The Fines de Claires Oysters are exclusively produced in the Marennes-Oléron basin in France. They have an elongated shell which makes them easily recognizable.
The Fines de Claires Oysters are less fleshy than normal oysters and have softer-colored flesh. The Fines de Claires Oysters are rich in water and have a stronger, slightly sweeter taste thanks to the "affinage" made in ponds connected to seawater during the last weeks of the farming.
Enjoy served over ice with a slice of lemon. Rinse under water before serving. Famous oysters from the largest oyster-producing region in the world. The oysters are finished in knee-deep claire (rectangular salt ponds) for a minimum of one month, during which they fatten and take on a sweeter, fruitier flavor from the water and phytoplankton in the ponds.
