Description
Spicy habanero smoked oysters grown and tinned in Washington State. Long-line farming and a dual-sauce habanero brine create a clean, fiery bivalve with distinct regional integrity.
Craft & Origin
Pacific oysters are cultivated on Ekone’s independent farms in Willapa Bay using a suspended long-line method to eliminate sand and grit. After harvest, the oysters are steamed, shucked, and brined in small batches using two distinct habanero sauces. They are then placed on stainless steel racks and cold-smoked over maple chips before canning. This precise process yields a product that remains shelf stable for up to four years.
Flavor & Texture
Pronounced heat with a balanced wood smoke profile. Firm and plump texture.
How to Use
Eat straight from the tin with cold beer, or toss into warm pasta dishes.
Why We Like It
Ekone maintains rare vertical integration by managing every step from aquaculture to independent canning. This structural control preserves natural bivalve quality while seamlessly incorporating a sharp, clean heat.
