VIDEO: The History of Japanese Wagyu Cattle (Kuroge Wahshu)

Published

The word "Wagyu" simply means "Japanese Cow". There are 4 breeds of cattle native to Japan and one of these -- the Kuroge Washu - is special, because its unique genetics allows it to produce a high degree of fine-grained marbling on the interior of the meat.

When this breed is raised in Japan by expert producers, cared for and fed the highest quality grasses, inawara rice straw and other ingredients -- and when it is then rated by expertly trained raters and reaches the highest possible rating for its fat quality -- it may earn the "A5" rating -- the best highest possible beef rating in Japan.

Kagoshima earned the highest average scores at last year's legendary "Wagyu Olympics" (全国和牛能力共進会) in Miyagi Prefecture.
