Beausoleil

"The flavor is refined and light, like a Caraquet, but with a bit more brine, and something of the yeasty warm-bread aroma you get with good Champagne. This makes them the perfect starter oyster."

"The experience is delicate, offering a balanced medium brine that evolves into a distinct yeast-like sweetness. Think a sip of Champagne or the aroma of warm, freshly baked bread. You won't find any overwhelming ocean funk here, just a crisp, clean finish that invites another taste."

"While the Beau Soleil (or Beausoleil) oyster never touch the sea floor, their taste is quite 'earthy' to me. They have immaculate shells that are tough and bright. They have a distinctive, almost pungent flavor."
