Bluefin Tuna is a premium fillet with a rich flavor and high Omega-3 content — a standard for sushi/sashimi, tartares and steaks. The fish is processed according to the Japanese IKI JIME method (stress-free) and instantly deep-frozen to −60 °C right on the farm. This preserves the natural color, smooth texture and sashimi-grade quality without ice crystals.
Location: Pelagos farm is located near the island of Balabra between the islands of Žut and Sit (Adriatic) — a naturally protected area with minimal stress for the fish.
Catching area: FAO 37.2.1
Advantages of Bluefin tuna:
Sashimi-grade quality is stable all year round: IKI JIME + deep shock freezing to −60 °C directly on the farm.
Origin control: each batch is identified through the ICCAT-registration of the farm — transparent history of cultivation and origin.
Uniform fat content and color: selection of “plugs” from the meat allows you to determine the fat content and color — key factors of product value.
Low stress — better texture: protected farm water area, daily monitoring of fish condition (temperature/oxygen), computerized net cleaning. IKI JIME: Japanese method that minimizes stress — lactic acid does not enter the muscles, so the color and taste remain pure.
Premium diet: fresh small pelagic fish (during the moonless periods) + IQF feed during the moon phases and off-season.
