About Belon Maine

European Flat oysters brought to Maine from Europe in the 1950s that have since grown wildly in Maine waters. The cold, nutrient-rich tides from the Gulf of Maine and pebble bottom produce 3-4-year-old wild oysters with a meaty chew, strong brine.

In plain words: very briny, metallic, meaty, intense, chewy, with salt bomb salt.
