Whitstable oysters

Whitstable oysters come from the oyster beds near Whitstable in Kent, and have a unique, fat, succulent meat full of zinc and Omega 3 fatty acids. They are harvested, washed and graded after three to five years of growing in the oyster beds, after which they are sold live and fresh.

Visually, they are small, flat, round, bluish and firm, and are at their best if eaten in cold weather to fully experience their soft and creamy texture.
