The length of shelf life is dependent upon the condition of the oysters and the temperature at which it is stored. Oysters harvested during the summer months when biological stresses are highest have the shortest shelf life (approximately 16-18 days). Oysters harvested during the winter months have a shelf life of 18-21 days. We recommend that the storage temperature remain between 33-40 degrees and guarantee shelf life under these conditions; temperature abuses will reduce shelf life.
