Hog Island Oyster Co-the Boat

Hog Island Sweetwaters. Our original oyster and the star of our show: A rich, and as the name suggests, sweet tasting Pacific Oyster with a slightly smoky finish. Plump meat sits in a beautifully shaped, deep-cupped, fluted shell that is the result of rack and bag farming techniques.

An East Coaster out West. Hog Island is one of only two west coast oyster farms raising this classic East coast oyster. Harvested seasonally as a specialty, Hog Island Atlantics have smooth, oblong shells, delicate meat and crisp minerality. One of our favorite 'summer time' oysters.

Good things come in small packages. Kumamotos are an Eastern Pacific oyster originating from the Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan. Cultivated on the West Coast since the late 1940s, these oysters take from two to three years to reach market size at, 1-1.5 inches. Each tiny shell packs in big flavor: Buttery, succulent meat with a lingering essence of cucumber and melon.
