How they taste: Wellfleets are well renowned for their intensely briny taste (think big blast of ocean water) and clean finish.  They also have a defined vegetal undertone from the bottom planting. Well-defined adductor muscles and plump, juicy meats make for a tender, chewy bite.

Why they're unique: Wellfleet is a famed oyster town!  There are over 100 small growers in Wellfleet, many of whom work alongside their family members, keeping the old-fashioned farming traditions alive.  We select oysters from seven top-notch growers in the Wellfleet shellfish community to provide the classic New England oyster experience.

"Great oysters. Love the brine and the taste of the ocean. My wife gets me oysters every year for Fathers Day and my birthday. The quality and service can’t be beat."

Freshly Delivered to Crested Butte CO

Several bad oysters in this batch

"Hello, we were so excited to have Wellfeets at our dinner party, but unfortunately we had several bad ones in the bag of 50. While shucking we notice 2 that were dried out, but the rest looked good to serve. As the host I tried several and 2 the 4 I ate were foul tasting and off. Another guest had 2 bad ones. For what it’s worth, the ones that were fresh were delicious but the experience was not good once we had a bad one. We followed the storage instructions exactly and only had in the fridge for less than 24 hrs from delivery. The temp gauge was white as it should be the packs were still very cold."
