Koshikijima Seafood

The Koshikijima Islands, floating off the coast of Satsumasendai, are bountiful fishing grounds surrounded by crystal-clear waters. The seafood of Koshikijima, nurtured by this sea, is characterized by a freshness unique to remote islands. From silverstripe round herring (kibinago), which reaches its peak from spring to early summer, to spiny lobsters and overnight-dried kibinago, there is an abundance of ocean treasures. Koshikijima is such a significant production area that it accounts for over twenty percent of the nationwide catch of kibinago; here lies the bounty of a clear sea that has been preserved precisely because of its distance from the mainland. The untouched nature supports the freshness and flavor of the seafood. Enjoy the taste of what was caught just that day, whether as sashimi or grilled. Please savor this uniquely fresh flavor nurtured by the island's sea.
