Kanasaki Wild Torafugu (Tiger Pufferfish)
Kanasaki's wild torafugu is hailed as the highest grade of pufferfish. It is an exquisite delicacy nurtured by the time and effort provided by the Genkai Sea during winter. Kanasaki Fishing Port in Munakata City is the largest landing port in Fukuoka Prefecture. Wild torafugu, raised amidst the rough waves of the Genkai and Hibiki Seas, has firm flesh with exceptional sweetness and umami. It is a hidden gem of a production area, said to account for a significant portion of the wild torafugu from the outer sea that reaches the markets in Shimonoseki. The season runs from December to March. The translucent slices of Tessa (sashimi) and the rich, mellow flavor of Tecchiri (hot pot) are truly a winter feast. You can fully experience its true quality at local pufferfish fairs held in the area.
