You exactely have the same problem as I have.
And my base is also UNICODE...

Well, are you sure ? With *all* tools, that can be psql or pgdump_all, 
everything seems
right, look at an extract of a dump :
6       6       PPN     Nigiri mixte    t       t
7       7       PNS     Nigiri saké     t       t
8       8       PNT     Nigiri maguro   t       t
9       9       PNM     Nigiri saké maguro      t       t
43      43      PSM     Petit Nigiri maguro     t       t
44      44      PSS     Petit Nigiri saké       t       t

As you can see it *works* for a dump.

Are you sure the problem is in the INSERT ?

And let's admit you're right, isn't there a way to do something in the JDBC 
driver ?
Or is there a way to correct the database ?
