Maruju 2015

Looking for kohaku Ushijima Nishikigoi went to Maruju to look at tosai. We also saw a stunning ginrin showa so we had to get it.

Marusho 2015

Right down the street from the house where we stay is Marusho Koi farm. We were in Niigata for 3 days and visited Shosaku three times. It was worth it.

Yagenji 2015

Our first stop on our Koi buying trip this year was to Yagenji Koi Farm. We were able to get some nice kohaku, sanke, showa, kikusui and kinkokujyu.

Yamamatsu 2015

Ushijima Nishikigoi can't go to Niigata without a stop at the home of the Matsunosuke Sanke. We got two good sized nisai to take home.
