Description

Portuguese oyster, farmed and refined in the bay of the Sado estuary in pristine waters, is a highly fleshy oyster, due to the rich waters in which it grows. Thanks to the Atlantic ocean that scourges the Portuguese coast, there is an interesting combination of a rather pronounced iodiness of the mantle and a highly developed callus to counteract the strength of the ocean waters.
