Step into the world of traditional Japanese Koi excellence with Elite Koi’s Yagenji Asagi Challenge – Grow & Show 2025!
Following our 2025 Japan buying trip, we knew we had to share something truly special with the UK Koi community. During our visit to the Yagenji Koi Farm, we were captivated by the stunning Nisai Asagi bred by the highly respected Ishihara Daisuke-san. Their graceful scalation, striking blue hues, and vibrant red highlights gave us a vision—to offer 20 hand-selected Tosai Asagi for a UK-based Grow & Show event!
These Tosai Koi offer amazing potential, and this event is your chance to be part of their journey.
