Product Description 

These Aphrodite oysters are grown, brined, and harvested in the crisp, clean, salt waters of Penobscot Bay. The farm is located in the Lower Weskeag River, So. Thomaston, ME.

Apthrodite's are grown by oyster farmer Krista Tripp. She grew up on the water, serving as the sternman for both her grandfather and father. To diversify her income on the water, she decided to start the oyster farm in 2017.

Here's what Krista has to say about her oysters, "Did you know it takes 3 years for our oysters to grow? This is because the water temperature is much colder where we grow our oysters when compared to other oyster farms. This is what gives our oysters their unique flavor profile and also makes for a much tastier oyster! They’ve been brining for 1 more year than most marketable oysters. Give Aphrodite’s a try, and you’ll see the difference!"

Oyster shucking kit

Athrodite oysters can be ordered in 12 or 25 count bags. We offer oyster shucking kits here. The shucking kit includes a high-quality shucking knife and an FDA-approved puncture-resistant glove.

We pack and prepare all orders the day of shipping to ensure quality and freshness.

**Please Note: Oyster Availability/Substitutes**

If your chosen oyster farm is unavailable at the time of shipping, we will select a substitute oyster for you. That substitute oyster will be as close to your chosen oyster as possible in size, location grown, and flavor. If the oyster farm you select is particularly important to you, please leave a note for us in the comments. The note can read (Please let me know if “insert oyster farm” is unavailable). If we see this note and the oyster you have selected is unavailable, we will contact you to discuss options. Options may include a refund or changing the shipping day (to a day when the farm has dropped off more of their oysters at our facility).

Please contact us with any questions regarding our oyster program at SoPo via sales@soposeafood.com.

"I live in Las Vegas and it's very hard to get good seafood here. I ordered 25 lbs of haddock. It arrived on time and was very fresh. I have the best fish anywhere in Vegas. Will be ordering much more." - Erik

"Impossible, up to this point, to get fresh seafood where I live. After someone I know recommended SoPo Seafood, I went all in with oysters, sushi grade salmon and sea scallops, sea urchin, halibut, and lobster tails. Simply put, it took me back to a seaside East Coast restaurant. I can finally eat high quality, fresh seafood in my landlocked state almost at will!" - Rafael V

"I have to say 5 stars because of the quality of the Haddock was excellent. The way the fish is packed keeps it fresh from Maine to North Carolina overnight. For us, it's well worth the money. We are returning customers and we'll be back soon buying more haddock for sure." - Michael M
