"Farmed" oysters are deeper, rounder and more consistent than a wild oyster. Almost every farming technique has a benefit to shell hardness, meat texture, shelf life, shape, and shell appearance. Much can be examined in this section on flavor variances, meat texture , shell shape and color, and locational marketability, but we feel that the best education on these things is trial and success. Pacific Oysters have a tendency to contain complex flavors such as mineral, grass, and cucumber with a complex, melon brine paired with understated nuance unique to the mineral make up of the Pacific Ocean. The shell tends to be fluted from the strong tidal activity of the Pacific.
