About Sand Dune

Collected from a naturally reproducing wild oyster bed and deposited on the bottom of the Souris River, Prince Edward Island, where the oysters cultivate for four to six years fed by two daily oceanic tidal changes mixing with fresh-water estuaries.

In plain words: briny, buttery, delicate, deep-cupped, with salt bomb salt.
