Jervis Bay
Jervis Bay · Pacific Coast, Australia · Saccostrea glomerata
Jervis Bay is one of Australia's deepest and clearest coastal bays — its pristine water and strong tidal exchange produce firm, clean SROs with good brine, earthy-nutty character, and excellent umami. The bay's clarity shows in the oyster's clean, precise finish.
