Kumamoto (Kiku)
About Kumamoto (Kiku)
Skagit Shellfish Company's tide-tumbled take on the classic Kumamoto, raised in mesh bags on leases where the Skagit River's freshwater dilutes the salt of Puget Sound, softening the brine and shifting the flavor toward sweetness.
In plain words: creamy, mild, melon, buttery, firm, with briny salt.
