Finished in natural salt pans

The essence of oysters

Marennes-Oléron district is the most important in oysters farming and finishing in France, in fact this region has perfect natural conditions for oyster growth.

Over the centuries, this region producers were been able to farm oyster using the ancient clay salt pans called "claire" to finish the oysters after a grow process that can take place on the entire French coast. Thanks to this process, Fine de Claire (wich means "refined in the claire") can boast the European recognition of Protected Geographical Indication - PGI.

The finishing process undergoes to strict processes dictated by production specifications: for at least 28 days they are kept in the claire with a density of 3 kg per square meter, this gives the oyster a characteristic nutty flavor.

per curiosità ho acquistato dal sito, avendo già ottimi fornitori da banco, ho assaggiato polpo in versione ragù e decongelato, ostriche gauloise, cozze, ho constatato la valida qualità dei prodotti, la puntualità ed l'ottimo packaging. Tutto ottimo

Meriterebbero 10 stelle. Io e mio marito abbiamo assaggiato le ostriche Gillardeau n.3 e del caviale per una serata di anniversario. La consegna e’ stata perfetta. Per il caviale, abbiamo scelto l’iraniano, buonissimo. Grazie. Al prossimo ordine 🙏🏻
