What is Matsusaka Beef?
"Matsusaka Beef" is a name given only to the virgin Japanese black cattle raised in the areas covered by the Matsusaka Beef Individual Identification Management System, which consists of the former 22 cities and towns of Mie Prefecture. These cattle are raised for about three years after birth, which is longer than the average duration of Japanese beef cattle, using a unique feed and breeding method. The cattle are raised in Matsusaka City, Mie Prefecture, blessed with a favorable climate, clean water, and four rich seasons. Matsusaka Beef is considered a "meatwork of art" owing to its excellent qualities. It can only be produced through long-term and thorough fattening management in a favorable environment. We insist on using only virgin Japanese black cattle, as they have the most tender meat and are most likely to be marbled.
