Description

The All-Irish version of the Gillardeau house, farmed by choice from birth to maturity in Irish waters. Thanks to the nutrient-rich Atlantic waters, which are not particularly warm or cold and therefore very favourable to oyster growth, the Tia Maraa has high fleshiness and strong callus, due to the need to withstand the consistent ocean tides. This gives it its typical predominantly sweet taste, perfectly matched by the slight iodine notes it presents.
