Umami
About Umami
Umami, literally 'taste sensation' in Japanese, captures exactly what this cocktail-grade oyster delivers: a strong brine that resolves into a creamy, savory finish, a taste sensation the Western palate would call meaty rather than merely salty.
In plain words: very briny, creamy, umami, savory, with salt bomb salt.
