About Wild Pony

Fallen Pine's wild-caught counterpart to the farmed Salt Buoy, taken from Maryland's Chincoteague Bay, a shallow wind-driven lagoon behind Assateague whose weak tides and heavy evaporation make it the saltiest water in the state. Larger, with a thicker shell.

In plain words: very briny, oceanic, clean, firm, robust, with salt bomb salt.
