Pacific oysters are popular because they are extremely hearty and they have a highly-prized, mild flavor. These Pacifics are very small, measuring only 2.5 to 3 inches long. Originally from Japan, the Pacific oyster is the most widely cultured oyster in the world. In the 1920's, the Pacific oyster was brought to Washington State to save the oyster industry when the native Olympia became depleted.

Origin: These live oysters are from Washington’s Puget Sound

Handling: Live Oysters are best eaten within a week of harvest. They are best kept alive by placing them in an open container in a refrigerator (34° - 45° F) deep side down, and covering them with a clean wet towel to prevent them from drying out. Do not keep them in a bucket of sea water, in plastic bags or other air tight containers.
