About Moonlight Bay

Grown in floating cages under the moonlight of Barnstable Bay, then finished in growout trays. Sweet, pillowy meats with a solid Cape Cod brine and a light seaweed finish, shaped by a 10-foot tidal range and freshwater creek inputs.

In plain words: sweet, briny, seaweed, clean, creamy, with briny salt.
