Tasting Notes
Described by oyster sommelier Julie Qiu (@inahalfshellist) as having “full ocean salinity and a good amount of umami ... grassy and anise notes with a light, earthy finish ... after one day in the fridge, this oyster reminded me of sipping a rich shoyu ramen broth.”
Growing Process
Salt Bombs are grown at the mouth of the Bull River within sight of the Atlantic Ocean. Cultivated in floating baskets, they’re naturally polished and shaped by the brisk current and high-energy wave action rolling in off Wassaw Sound — producing a clean, deep-cupped oyster with unmistakable coastal character.
Care & Storage
Bring your oysters home in a cooler and keep them around 45°F for maximum freshness. When properly handled, Salt Bombs will stay delicious for up to two weeks.
