Chutoro comes from the medium-fat section of the bluefin tuna and combines the delicate texture of akami with the pleasant richness of otoro. The meat is tender, juicy, and flavorful, with well-balanced marbling—ideal for nigiri, sashimi, or lightly seared tataki. For many connoisseurs, chutoro strikes the perfect balance between flavor and texture.
