Iwagaki Haruka
When you open the shell, you find a generous amount of thick, creamy meat. Beneath its deep, rich umami, a refreshing sweetness gently emerges. They are raised in Ama Town, Shimane Prefecture. Only rock oysters that pass through strict standards are permitted to bear the name 'Haruka.' Shipping them raw is rare and only occurs from March to May. This is because this period, when seawater temperatures are between 17 and 19 degrees Celsius, is precisely when their umami is at its peak. Each oyster is suspended in the sea and carefully raised to ensure nutrients reach every single one; they are a luxury ingredient that sometimes fetches the highest prices at Tsukiji. As you take a smooth bite, it feels as if the clear waters of Oki are spreading before you. Please enjoy this rich, singular treasure available only in spring.
