About Wagyu
The word Wagyu means “Japanese cow” and, as the name suggests, refers to a couple of cattle breeds that originated in Japan. Since Buddhist leaders prohibited the eating of flesh, these cattle were initially only selected on their ability to carry heavy loads. This ban was lifted by the mid-nineteenth century, by which time the marbling of these breeds was already entrenched.
Marbling is the word used for the intramuscular fat responsible for its succulent and flavoursome taste. The quality of the meat proved so good that Wagyu beef, for many years, was reserved only for royalty and samurais in Japan.
In 2018, the Wagyu Society of South Africa established a certification programme to ensure the integrity of the South African Wagyu beef supply chain and for quality assurance purposes.
