Characteristics

Misty Point oysters (Crassostrea virginica) are from the renowned growing area of Pope’s Bay, Virginia. These petite, cocktail-size oysters (2″-3″) contain a surprisingly robust flavor. Its briny, earthy, almost sweet meat has a delightful texture with subtle notes of lettuce and grass.
