Kampachi (Amberjack) introduction

Kampachi (かんぱち, Amberjack) from Kagoshima is Japan's top in production volume. It is carefully raised through a consistent system where original feed is tailored to each growth stage, and detailed farming records are maintained for each net pen. Bursting with rich fat and savory flavor, Kampachi is perfect for sashimi, tataki (lightly seared fish), or shabu-shabu (hot pot). A true delicacy from Kagoshima!
