Ultra-Premium Hon-Maguro Akami by Yamayuki, Japan
Only at Hokkaido Uni Shop

This isn’t just tuna—this is 超上級 (Chō-Jōkyū) Akami, the purest lean cut from Japan’s finest bluefin, hand-selected by Yamayuki, the most trusted name at Toyosu Market. Out of all their wins, fewer than 2% qualify for this elite grade.

You’ll recognize it by its deep, vivid red color, clean structure, and total absence of sinew. The flavor is refined and mineral-rich—ocean-clean, precise, and balanced. It’s the cut of choice for purists and chefs who value clarity over fat

Super Frozen Akami (Lean Bluefin Tuna)
  • Origin: Japan 
  • Condition: Super frozen at -70°F
  • Size: Approx. 0.5lbs lb per saku (may vary)

This cut is expertly trimmed for sushi and sashimi service. Super frozen immediately upon processing to preserve its natural integrity, texture, and flavor depth.é

Defrosting Tips
  • Best: Refrigerator thaw for 12–24 hours
  • Quick: Salted cold water bath, 10–15 minutes
  • Avoid: Hot water or microwave (it compromises quality)
