This season’s sale It started on November 1, 2024. Until last year, due to serious damage caused by red tide that occurs from June to September every year from 2022 We have been unable to ship “Roppuku

We overcame adversity this season, and miraculously we were able to start shipping from November 1st, but due to the rush of orders As all of our staff are working together to resolve this issue, we are happy to inform everyone today. Thanks to the efforts of our on-site staff and the support from all over the country, we have started selling within Kumamoto Prefecture as well as to the Kansai and Kanto regions, although the number of shipments is lower than usual. “Roppuku (R) -ROPPUKU-”, which has six times more flavor than natural tiger puffer fish, will be delivered to our customers again as the highest quality farmed tiger puffer fish.

Tiger blowfish sashimi and hot pot dishes using “ROPPUKU” [Download URL] https://roppuku.jp/ ■Miraculous recovery from red tide damage – producers’ passion and efforts From July 2022 to September 2024, the red tide that hit the Yatsushiro Sea in Kumamoto Prefecture caused extensive damage to the Fukusei fish farm. Fukunari, the first company in Kumamoto Prefecture to farm tiger puffer fish, has been farming them for about 40 years and has never experienced a mass death of farmed tiger puffer fish due to red tide. However, the damage caused by red tide over the past three years has exceeded conventional wisdom, resulting in large numbers of adult farmed pufferfish dying, and many of the surviving farmed pufferfish becoming emaciated due to food stoppage, and failing to meet brand standards. I was worried about whether I would be able to meet the requirements. However, the on-site staff was motivated to do it “for the sake of our
customers,” and through careful management and ingenuity, they were able to restore the tiger blowfish to a fish that meets shipping standards, leading to sales this season. This miraculous revival was the result of Fukusei’s technology and passion, as well as the support of our customers. “Rokufuku (R)”, which has overcome adversity, has special value as a tiger blowfish that brings good fortune.
