freezing only hours after harvest ensures that New Zealand Greenshell™ Mussels
remain succulent and capture that straight-from-the-water-taste. If you

within days of harvest; only New Zealand Greenshell™ Mussels can

Their distinctive look highlights their superior flavor

mussels and other Perna species found elsewhere. They can be recognized
by their distinctive green and gold shell coloring; superior meat yield
and their larger size. This larger size mussel is grown quickly resulting
in a tender, succulent mussel. The taste is flavorful, but versatile
enough to work in application without being overpowering.
