“When Jeremy Benson approaches a restaurant table as a sommelier, he’s prepared to talk about what you might expect: flavor profile, geography, terroir, and mouthfeel. Sometimes, he takes down a map from the wall to illustrate the origin of different varietals from across the globe.
But Benson, general manager of New York City’s Crave Fishbar, is not imparting advice about wine. He’s been summoned to talk about, well, oysters. He’s one of the first people in the world to obtain a Level 2 Oyster Specialist certification from the newly created Oyster Master Guild. In January, he hopes to become the world’s first official oyster sommelier.”
