What Makes Kohaku Special?
Kohaku (pronounced koh-ha-koo) is the most iconic and foundational variety in the world of koi, representing the beginning of nearly every koi hobbyist’s journey. As the oldest recognized color variety, Kohaku set the standard for elegance and simplicity in koi breeding.
It features a pure white body adorned with striking red markings known as hi, creating a visual balance that is both bold and serene.
Look for:
Crisp, snow-white skin (shiroji) that serves as a clean canvas
Deep, uniform red (hi) patterns—free of blemishes or fading
Classic patterns: Nidan (two-step), Sandan (three-step), and Inazuma (lightning bolt)
The simplicity of Kohaku’s design reveals everything, every flaw and every beauty, making it the true test of koi quality. A well-bred Kohaku commands attention with graceful movement and flawless contrast, making her not just a fish, but a living piece of art.
