Albacore tuna in olive oil

This is albacore- or white tuna in its purest form. Not only because we caught it traditionally, with a fishing rod, but also because we only added a bit of olive oil. This way you can taste the pure, soft taste of the fish with every single bite. Add the high count of omega 3 fatty acids and its carefree enjoyment all the way.

Origin

Welcome to Okinawa! Hidden in the East China Sea the island is known for its delicious albacore tuna. Fumio and his crew catch the fish in the most sustainable way, with a pole and line. The island is also know for it's almost-eternal youth. A highly unusual percentage of its inhabitants live to be 100! One of the reasons is their healthy diet: loads of vegetable and fish. It's one of the few places where they catch albacore tuna all year round!

Fish with a story

Fumio Tomorio comes from a true fishermen family. At the age of four he caught his first fish with his dad. "My dad has always been my great inspiration. He was a fisherman, so I wanted to become a fisherman as well. Traditions are being passed on from generation to generation." When Fumio watches the sunrise or sunset from his boat he feels very lucky and grateful. "We have to take care of our oceans and earth. Only that way we can enjoy the nature and the fish. Now and in the future!"

Fishing method

Fumio and his crew catch the tuna with pole and a line. Each fishermen holds on bamboo pole with, one hook, one line catching one fish at a time. The fishermen all sit on the edge of the boat, waiting for the tuna to chase the bait and bite their hooks. The fishermen have to concentrate: when they are only a fraction too late with pulling their rods, the tuna will escape! Pole and line fishing for tuna is a very selective method, they only catch the tuna and of the right size!

Fumio and his crew searches for the right school of tuna to catch. As soon as the tuna is spotted, he manouvers the boat in the right position and the live bait is thrown in the water. This makes the tuna go crazy: they start chasing the live bait. In this so-called feeding frenzy, the tuna also accidently bite the hooks of the fishermen. At some point, the tuna will notice that something is going on and the school will dissapear again. That's when the fishing is over and Fumio will go and look for another school.
