From the cool, nutrient-rich waters of New Zealand’s Marlborough Sounds, Marlborough Oysters™ are a clean, pure expression of their marine environment: naturally sweet, gently briny and finished with a crisp mineral note.
What to Expect
Clean and lightly briny, with notes of cucumber, sea breeze and a subtle sweetness. The texture is plump and creamy, with an elegant salinity that keeps each oyster fresh and bright.

Serving Ideas
Best enjoyed freshly shucked on ice with a squeeze of lemon or a classic mignonette. Pairs beautifully with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, Champagne or a light citrus vinaigrette.
