Our Fish

 

Kampachi Farms Yellowtail, or "Kampachi", is a delicious, premium sashimi-grade marine fish raised in the pristine open ocean off Kona, Hawaii. While genetically identical to wild Seriola rivoliana, known as Almaco Jack or Kahala, farm-raised Kampachi is a distinctly different fish. Hatched from eggs in a shoreside facility and transferred to the open ocean as fingerlings, Kampachi are carefully nurtured through every stage of their life cycle. While wild Kahala can be prone to internal parasites and ciguatoxcicity, the high-quality diets and innovative culture methods used in Kampachi cultivation result in one of the tastiest, most versatile, and healthiest fish available.

Kampachi has a clean, rich, slightly nutty flavor and firm texture, making it an unsurpassed
choice for sushi and sashimi. While delicious raw, Kampachi is beloved by chefs for it's
versatility in the kitchen, where it is just as outstanding for grilling, poaching, sauteeing or
searing
.

Kampachi's high fat content (~30%) not only makes for delicious sushi, but also makes the fish an excellent source of heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids. Additionally, due to their being fed a sustainable low-fishmeal diet and raised in some of the cleanest water on Earth, Hawaii-grown Kampachi are free of detectable levels of Mercury and PCB's, and completely free of internal parasites. Also, because no growth hormones, genetic engineering, or prophylactic antibiotics are used in Kampachi production, you can be sure you're getting only the safest, healthiest, highest-quality fish.
