Wagyu Cattle are a breed of Japanese beef cattle known for their exceptional marbling and tenderness. The term “Wagyu” literally means “Japanese cow,” and it encompasses four principle breeds of beef cattle, primarily the Japanese Black, Japanese Brown, Japanese Shorthorn, and Japanese Polled. Originally, Wagyu were used as draft animals in agriculture, selected for their endurance and ability to produce high levels of intramuscular fat, which contributes to the rich flavor and texture of the beef. Today, Wagyu beef is highly prized worldwide for its quality and is often associated with luxury dining experiences. It is a very complex breed. Pricing of registered bulls and cows can run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. To learn more about our Wagyu Beef visit our FAQ’s.
