Wagyu

Wagyu is well known for its ability to lay down intra muscular fat.

Wagyu is a traditional Japanese breed of cattle that is well known for its ability to lay down intra muscular fat. Wagyu beef when properly cooked provides a tasty melt-in-your-mouth beef experience.

Wagyu refers to a special Japanese breed of cattle, genetically predisposed to intense marbling, and produces a high percentage of oleaginous unsaturated fat. The meat from Wagyu cattle is known worldwide for marbling characteristics, increased eating quality through a naturally enhanced flavour, tenderness and juiciness, and thus a high market value.

Because of the Wagyu cattle's genetic predisposition and a special diet, wagyu yields a beef that contains a higher percentage of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and the tell-tale sign of a highly marbled beef. The increased marbling also improves the ratio of monounsaturated fats to saturated fats.
