About the Taste
Cora Cressey oysters pack a briny punch. A nice tender meat with a bright, very briny finish. This is the favorite oyster of Tommy, my top box packer, and I bet you'll love it too.
The Source
Cora Cressey cocktail oysters are grown in lobster pounds along the Medomak River, right next to the wrecked ship "Cora Cressey", hence the name.
Why you'll love them
These are delicious, briny oysters grown by the good folks at Community Shellfish in Bremen, Maine. Since I ship out of Community Shellfish's facility, I have the good fortune of taking them out of the water just minutes before shipment. In years past they were petite, but we're getting plumper, larger ones lately so don't expect petites - these are standard size oysters, but not jumbos.
