Japan Premium Akami

Premium farm-raised bluefin tuna from southern Japan raised with the highest quality feed and individually line caught one by one. Due to it not being mass-produced or processed, this tuna is handled with extreme care. The taste is much different than any other farmed bluefin from other parts of the world. Much cleaner and mild taste.
