Matsusaka beef is one of Japan's most exclusive and rare types of beef, often considered even more luxurious than Kobe beef. Named in Japan's Top 3 of Kobe, Omi and Matsusaka - Praised throughout the country and around the world as a "work of meat art" for its wonderful taste.

It hails from the Matsusaka region in Mie Prefecture, Japan, where a small number of farmers meticulously raise Matsusaka cattle under strict regulations. It is celebrated for its exceptional marbling, characterized by delicate intramuscular fat that contributes to its unparalleled tenderness, juiciness, and rich flavor profile.

To qualify as Matsusaka beef, the cattle must meet stringent criteria regarding breed (mostly Japanese Black), lineage, diet, and upbringing. They are raised in a stress-free environment and receive a special diet that includes high-quality grains and even beer or sake to enhance flavor and tenderness.

Did you know? Only female calves are chosen due to their higher fat content which is higher than that of Kobe beef.
