About North Haven

Farmed off North Haven Island in the middle of Penobscot Bay, one of Maine's most exposed and current-swept oyster growing sites, where the surrounding open bay water delivers a bold, briny character balanced by the island's protected coves.

In plain words: briny, buttery, sweet, plump, with salt bomb salt.
