03 / 04 Wagyu raised in Japan is the real wagyu! But the real thing is not as common as one might think Wa = Japan Gyu = Beef Put these two characters together, and they mean “Japanese beef ” — the beef globally renowned for its exceptional quality and flavour. Unfortunately, most beef branded “wagyu” outside Japan has not been raised in Japan at all. Producers have simply applied the name to beef raised in the US, Australia and elsewhere from cattle breeds that were originally from Japan. Wagyu producers in Japan leverage outstanding expertise, including rearing, feeding and fattening methods that are extremely difficult to imitate. That’s why genuine Japanese wagyu can deliver the incredible flavour and texture that so many connoisseurs enjoy.
