Introducing Rose & Garnet

By Ocean Prime
A metal tray filled with crushed ice holds six opened oysters with seaweed garnishes, centered around a small dish of cocktail sauce with horseradish and a lemon wedge. The tray is set on a white plate, and a dark cloth napkin is folded underneath.

We are excited to introduce our private label East Coast oyster in partnership Cape Cod Oyster Co.

In honor of National Oyster Day, August 5, our team is proud to announce our partnership with Cape Cod Oyster Co. to introduce our private label east coast oyster, available at Ocean Prime locations nationwide: Rose & Garnet.

Inspired by the pink sands of the Cape Cod beaches containing rose quartz and garnet grain, our oysters are high in salinity with a sweet aftertaste due to the proximity to the strong tides of the Vineyard Sound.

Cape Cod Oyster Co. is one of the largest oyster producers in the industry, farming 52 weeks per year, and known for their commitment to sustainability and traceability. They control the oyster growing process from “seed” to harvest so they have 100% traceability.

Our private label Rose & Garnet oysters begin as seedlings, feeding in the nutrient-rich waters of North Bay on Cape Cod. They are hand grown and harvested in the premier merrior of Barnstable Harbor. The strong ebb and flow of ocean tides twice a day supply our oysters with a diet rich in minerality and salinity.

We visited the dedicated oyster farm on the Cape to learn about the oyster growing process and establish this special program.
