Gunma’s Beef Wins 5th Place (5th Nationally)
Wagyu beef from Gunma Prefecture has been widely recognized for its top quality made possible by the natural environment supported by the clear water of the Tone River. It is now sold worldwide, including countries in the EU, the US and Singapore. Especially noteworthy is Joshu Wagyu, which was the first Japan-raised Wagyu beef exported to the EU in 2014 where conditions and regulations are especially strict.
Wagyu from Gunma features a delicate aroma of fat attributed to the abundant, clear water source in the region. The texture of the flesh is uniform and the fat is highly integrated into the meat, creating harmony in a variety of dishes.
Under strict hygienic conditions, the beef is carefully and efficiently hand-cut by skilled artisans and easy-to-use portions are deliverd to consumers.
