Whale sashimi, directly from northern Japan

My wife is from northern Japan and yesterday we ate whale that came to us directly from her hometown.

First time eating "never-frozen" whale. It was amazingly delicious! Melt in you mouth good! I would highly recommended if you can find an ethical source.

(I consider the whale we ate ethical as it came from a small village, named "whale river", that hunts a single one once a year and has been doing it for 100s of year, if not 1000s. They also hunt mink whales, a non endangered species.)
