Now, that’s
a NICE oyster!
Here on the rugged coast of Maine, Iron Island Oysters are ruled by the seasons.

Try our oysters throughout the year because they offer a seasonal variation of flavors that’s an adventure all on its own.
In late winter and early spring, before the dandelions bloom, our oysters are surprisingly full, with a mild taste and a sweet finish.
In the summertime, when the swallows are racing in and out of the barn and the young ones are trying out their new wings, you’ll find our oysters to be downright bold and not at all shy; full salt and a tang that stands up all on its own, complementing a mignonette or dressing when grilled.
In the fall, around about the time that the leaves have turned and the wind starts to sneak towards the easterly, the salt remains, but you’ll get a rich, lasting umami flavor as the oysters fatten for winter.
In all seasons, Iron Island Oysters have good shuckability and are full-meated.
We named our business the NICE Oyster Company, because every time we tried them, or gave them to friends, they said “Oh, those oysters are nice.”
We hope you agree.
