This premium canned food is made with oysters from Kumihama Bay in Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture, renowned for their exceptional flavor. Since Kumihama Bay is surrounded by mountains, the mountain water flows into Kumihama Bay. As a result, the bay's salinity levels are low, allowing you to enjoy the natural flavor of oysters. Perfect with beer or wine, and pairs exceptionally well with baguettes or pasta! Oysters are said to be *sweet and rich when they contain more than 32mg/100g of the umami component "serine" and more than 1500mg/100g of "free amino acids." In this context, magaki (pacific) oysters from Kumihama Bay are exceptionally rich, containing a whopping 61mg/100g of serine and at least 2,034mg/100g of free amino acids**. These values are remarkably high compared to 31 brands of Japanese oysters*, indicating that the umami of Kumihama Bay's magaki (pacific) oysters is exceptionally high. *Yuko Murata, et al.
