Hand-planted in the rich clay bottom of Mill Cove for the last year of their growth, resulting in unbeatable shells and depth of flavor. In winter, the growers cut through the Mill Cove ice with chainsaws and pull up the oysters ice-fishing style.

Love my local oysters! These beauties are always big, pretty, with a deep cup and plenty of sweet briny broth. The flesh is pale and meaty, and they shuck easily.
My favorite oyster of all-time, it’s becoming rarer to see them at the shops and bars these days, and I wonder why. This is a great bite, nicely balanced brine and sharp mineral finish. Awesome with an Allagash White Ale.
