A very mild level of saltiness contrasts distinctly with the high-level of sweetness coming through on the front of the palate in the Pittwater oyster. An almost indiscernible bitterness balances the sweetness in the mouth; combining to deliver a full umami experience in the first few seconds of tasting this oyster. With a pliant softness and tenderness, the texture is smooth and silky with a mildly earthy and organic finish with hints of green melons, seagrass and cucumber.
