About White Stone

Founded by Tom Perry and the first Virginia farm to grow oysters through their entire life cycle floating in the surf of the Chesapeake. Constant motion at the top of the food-rich water column builds strong bill growth and a deep cup.

In plain words: sweet, mushroom, vegetal, umami, firm, with balanced salt.
