HAVEN GOLDS

A taste of buttery heaven from Milford haven. “Fat as butter” is a waterman’s term for rich in flavor. With a distinctive golden tone and exceptional taste, our Haven Gold oysters truly live up to their name.

Farmed in Milford Haven

Our oyster beds and floating cages rest in this historic waterway between Gwynn’s Island and the Chesapeake Bay, with a nearly perfect salinity of 15 to 18 parts per thousand, plenty of tide and a hard bottom.

 

STARTED EARLY AND RAISED RIGHT

We begin with tiny seed and raise our oysters completely in house, hands-on every step of the way, using unique local skills and resources. We never ship Haven Golds out for finishing somewhere else.

THE TRIPLOID ADVANTAGE

Our oysters are non-spawning Virginicus triploids, so Haven Golds are reliably plump and tender, and ship at the peak of flavor.

A HIGH TOUCH PROCESS

We’re on and in the water almost daily, handling our Haven Golds throughout their lifecycle to ensure consistent quality: from grading 3 to 4 times in the nursery to breaking multiple times as they grow, to final tumbling and grading.

 

PRETTY IS AS PRETTY TASTES.

The result of all of this personal attention is a beautifully rounded, smooth lipped, deep cupped “fat” oyster with buttery tenderness and a delightful salty kiss.
