Kohaku (ko-ha-ku): The Kohaku is one of the most iconic and beloved koi varieties, instantly recognized by its pure white body adorned with bold red (hi) markings. As one of the oldest and most foundational koi breeds, the Kohaku represents simplicity, beauty, and tradition—often considered a “must-have” in any serious koi collection.
What sets high-quality Kohaku apart is the balance and intensity of its red pattern against a snow-white base. Whether displaying a classic two-step or more complex markings, the Kohaku’s elegant contrast makes it a timeless favorite in ponds and koi shows alike.
This variety is also known for its calm, friendly nature and can grow impressively large with proper care. Its clean design and graceful swimming add a sense of harmony and refinement to any water garden.
