About Gold Creek

Seeded and grown on the rocky beaches of southern Puget Sound, in an area whose rich oyster-farming history dates back to the gold rush days that give this oyster its name. A classic, full-cupped Puget Sound favorite with a briny, crisp bite.

In plain words: briny, crisp, full-bodied, firm, with salt bomb salt.
