Hibagyu

The vibrant crimson meat is finely interspersed with delicate marbling. Once placed in your mouth, the fat melts smoothly away—spreading a refined sweetness. Raised in Shobara City, Hiroshima Prefecture, this Japanese Black Wagyu carries the lineage of 'Iwakura-tsuru,' one of Japan's oldest lineages; its name is derived from the former place name, 'Hiba District.' The fat contains high levels of oleic acid and has a low melting point, allowing it to melt almost instantly at mouth temperature. It achieved first place in the National Wagyu Beef Capability Contest for two consecutive tournaments and was the first in Hiroshima Prefecture to be registered under the Geographical Indication Protection System in 2019. Due to its small production volume, it is often referred to as 'phantom Wagyu.' Whether enjoyed in sukiyaki or simply seared with salt, please experience its melt-in-your-mouth texture.
