Skagit Bay, WA

Looking for a west-coast lover? Ichiban is your gal. Glacier-melt rivers from Deception Pass make her dangerously subtle brine mouth-watering. Plump meats, low salinity, and a clean cucumber finish make her delectable.

Skagit Shellfish has been in business for over 35 years. We strive for sustainability in multiple forms, we have recently started using degradable insulated packaging to replace styrofoam and are testing biodegradable oyster netting.

The Gritty Details:

We use a flip-bag system on intertidal beds. The oysters in our system are constantly being turned by wave and tidal action, which gives them a very deep dish and a smooth hard shell.

Flavor Influenced by:

    1. Salinity: Mild
    2. Tides:
  1. Skagit bay is an extremely nutrient-rich body of water. The bay is fed by glacier-melt rivers along with direct ocean tidal exchange coming from Deception Pass. Skagit Bay is one of the cleanest bays in the state of Washington.
  2. Bottom Makeup: Sand + Mud
