Your oysters keep in the refrigerator for 5-7 days! You can order a day or two early to make sure you have them in time for your gathering. They are totally fine hangin’ out in the cool air.
When you receive your package, pull them out of the box (these guys need a little fresh air!). Grab a mixing bowl and throw the mesh bag in the bowl so that the oysters don’t leak all over your refrigerator. Grab a damp cloth and throw the cloth over the bowl. You are good to go for the next 5-7 days. Doesn’t hurt to dampen the cloth each day to keep them moist and chilled.
Only put the oysters on ice before service. The oysters will actually die in the melted fresh water so do not store the oysters on ice. They will not like this.
We ship using FedEx Overnight service. You will receive tracking info after the label has been printed the day before your oysters are set to arrive. We do not require a signature – Fedex will leave your package at your doorstep.

"I went to place an oyster order last week and discovered Honeydrops as an option I hadn’t seen before. Based on the description and where they are harvested, it sounded like something we’d like. Well, that’s an understatement. Maybe our new favorites, as their name, sweet and mellow, but with a wonderful briny blast. On top of that, easy to shuck, we really enjoyed them!!"
"Great after taste, little briney and easy to shuck, nice size"
"The oysters were absolutely perfect. With the recommendation from Island Creek. I ordered the honey drops 50 arrived in absolute perfect condition and we're devoured and enjoyed. Perfect size. Very clean. And just absolutely delicious."
"Honeydrop oysters were delicious! Very easy to shuck; and nice and sweet."
"Our order arrived on time and packed perfectly. They were pretty clean right out of the bag. These were surprisingly easy to open. We devoured 50 between the two of us! Sweet and delicious!"
"Half of them were opened. They smelled sour very fishy. We threw them out. Both ice packs were on the bottom of the box, which I believed contributed to their going bad on the trip, unless of course they were already bad when they were boxed."
"I order oysters for my husband a couple times a year. He's an oyster snob for sure. Island Creek oysters regardless of the type he says are the best oysters he's ever had. His absolute favorite is the Martha's Vineyards but these Honey drops did not disappoint. I can't say enough about the quality and service."
"I have ordered oysters regularly from Island Creek and these are by far my favorite! Delightfully surprised by the flavor profile (briny and then sweet at the end to me). These also are easier to open/shuck than other types. (Please keep them on the regular rotation!) Shipping was excellent and timely as usual."
"Absolutely delicious. Easy to shuck and delightful raw and roasted with panko and Parmesan cheese. Highly recommend."
"These Honeydrop oysters were so delicious. Each bite was a creamy delight. They were easy to shuck and devoured in no time at all!"
