There are approximately 88 Bluefin Tuna farms in Japan. Our Bluefin Tuna is carefully selected based on quality and taste. It has the perfect balance of lean and fat with a melt in your mouth texture. It also has a noticeable natural Tuna flavor like no other!
Otoro - The fattiest part of the bluefin tuna is called otoro (大トロ). Otoro has a characteristic sophisticated taste and a distinctive fat marbling which makes it melt in your mouth.
Chutoro - Chutoro (中トロ) is medium-fatty tuna. Many will argue it’s the best cut from the bluefin. While not as rich as otoro, chutoro has a moderate fattiness which makes it a very popular cut.
Akami - Akami (赤身) is lean red meat. It has a mellow flavor, good umami, and a firm texture. It is the most common tuna sushi that is served in dining restaurants in Japan.
