Default a different kind of uni?

Hi, long time, no post.
Just returned from Tokyo (lucky me) and dined 4 times at a "conveyor
belt" sushi place. But not the average, stale conveyor belt. You
order by computer pad, so your food is made to order and delivered to
you via conveyor, so much fun, and really fresh.
To my point, they offered 2 kinds of uni, regular and "ensui", their
quotes not mine. So I had to do a side by side taste test. Regular
uni was what I expected, distinct orange lobes, great quality. The
"ensui" uni looked completely different, like uni mush. But the
flavor! 5 times milder, creamier, less saline, no bitterness, what
uni should be.
Anyone ever experience this style of uni? Is it available in the USA?
BTW, either uni cost $2.50 per piece. That's why I went back 4 times.
