After Pandora, the fantastic Nogami Yondan Kohaku, owned by Danny’s Koi Café, won Grand Champion at the Rinyukai, there is yet another Belgian victory at one of the three biggest Koi shows in Japan.
With a beautiful 94cm Sakai Sanke only 5.5 years old, Johannes and Annie Lips won the Grand Champion prize at the All Japan ZNA Show. This Koi was purchased through Michel Capot at Narita as a sansai.
This Sanke features a fantastic Kohaku-pattern where the Sumi is beautifully harmoniously balanced.
The Koi has everything needed, a very strong build, sublime skin quality and a blissful pattern.
By the way, this is not their first victory on the highest Japanese stage; Johannes and Annie have also won several Best in Variety prizes at Tokyo Koi Show.
For such achievements you can have nothing more than respect, hereby congratulations once again to Johannes and Annie Lips, but of course also to Michiel Capot, Ryuki Narita and Kentaro Sakai.
