NZ Greenshell (TM) Mussells

New Zealand GreenshellTM mussels (or Green lipped mussels as they are also known) are cultivated on long-line mussel farms in the beautiful pristine waters of the South Island. Isolation and strong tidal currents in these areas make for ideal, grit free growing conditions.

They have a unique shell that is a distinctive iridescent jade colour and adds extraordinary visual appeal to a plate. Encased within the shell is a succulent plump meat that has a sweet tender taste.

With its culinary versatility, it is fast becoming the worlds most sought after shellfish. It can be can be baked, barbequed, fried, steamed, marinated or smoked.

New Zealand GreenshellTM mussels have extensive nutritional benefits – a superfood of the sea. High in protein and omega-3 fatty acids whilst low in fat and calories. They are a rich source of selenium, iron, vitamin B12 and iodine.

Pacific Oysters

Pacific Oysters

New Zealand Pacific Oysters are predominantly grown on sticks, trays and netting bags on intertidal farms, with most farms built in shallow, sheltered waters between the marks of high and low tide to optimise growing conditions. There are some Pacific Oysters grown in deeper waters, in trays beneath the surface, or on longlines supported by plastic floats – similar to the way New Zealand GreenshellTM Mussels are grown.

Enclosed within a deeply cupped shell is a generous serving of succulent plump meat. Pacific Oysters thrive in New Zealand’s pure and nutrient filled waters, providing a taste unique to New Zealand and the individual areas in which they are cultivated, and the purity to be consumed in their natural, raw state. Sumptuously textured, these delicacies are the height of indulgence.

New Zealand Pacific Oysters are rich in protein with an array of vitamins and minerals, offering an abundance of nutritional benefits.
