Premium Golden Shark Fin (Caudal Fin)

Golden Shark Fin (Jin Shan Gou Chi) is a traditional top-grade shark fin variety highly revered in Hong Kong’s dried seafood trade. Sourced from the caudal (tail) fins of deep-sea sharks, it represents a premium category in shark fin grading. "Gou Chi" specifically refers to tail fins, which contain no hard skeletal spines—yielding purely full, dense fin needles.

The unique quality of Golden Shark Fin lies in its clean processing; it is thoroughly trimmed of excess flesh, membrane, and cartilage impurities. One catty of dried fin can yield approximately 4 to 5 catties of rehydrated, ready-to-cook product. Compared to dorsal or pectoral fins, it incurs minimal preparation waste, making it significantly more cost-effective for regular home consumption and commercial restaurant use.
