Through our exclusive partnership with Hannari Wagyu, we receive only the highest-graded cuts, guaranteeing that this whole skirt steak is one of the most spectacular pieces of Wagyu you will ever experience.

Our agreement with Hannari beef means we only get the cream of the crop, the cows that grade BMS12.

 

A5 beef is measured on five factors: (1) marbling, (2) meat color and brightness, (3) firmness and texture of meat, and (4) color, luster and quality of fat.

In the quality grade, the lowest score from the four items of the yield grade is adopted. In other words, even if grade 5 was given to marbling, color and brightness, and firmness and texture, and only fat assessments was grade 4, the quality grade of this beef is classified as grade 4. Quality grading is severely done.

A5 means this beef excels in every single factor.It has a gorgeous webbing of fat that will make you feel a creamy mouth-feel in each bite. Its literally like tasting a cloud… a cloud of beef.

Like all of our steaks, they come vacuum sealed and have been hand-cut by our expert butchers.
