David Keane in Letterfrack allows us the opportunity to serve this rare delicacy, with sweet and creamy notes, and a touch of earthiness.
Sourced from County Louth, very rich distinctively sweet and slightly nutty flavour.
Grown on the west coast of Ireland for a delicious straight-from-the-sea taste.
As on the Galway Bay, the flavour is big bold ocean, sea salt upfront, seaweed notes in the middle, and a dry finish on the palate.
