The advantages of Pacific Bluefin Tuna sashimi are built into the fish itself. Pacific Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus orientalis) are powerful swimmers, capable of 8,000–11,000 km migrations and reaching up to 450 kilograms. That athleticism requires dense energy stores, which creates dramatic differences in fat and muscle — exactly what separates the buttery belly of toro from the deep-red strength of akami.
