The Oyster Ronce N°2 by David Hervé is a Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) cultivated off the coast of Île d’Oléron, France. Offered individually, this large-format oyster is known for its generous meat content and pronounced marine flavor, shaped by the nutrient-rich Atlantic waters.

Detailed Information
Ronce oysters are grown in open sea beds and later finished in coastal waters, benefiting from strong tidal movements that enhance their muscle tone and flavor complexity. The N°2 grading indicates a larger oyster with ample flesh. Its texture is firm yet succulent, delivering a bold, briny taste with mineral undertones and a lingering, umami-rich finish.
