WineBeef
The Hyōgo Prefecture
The Hyōgo prefecture, located in south-central Japan, is known for two things: winemaking and wagyu beef — the capital city of the area is Kōbe, after all! Realizing this, the producers at the Hikami Farm came up with an interesting and delicious way to combine the area’s two specialities by creating what is now known as Wine Beef.

Authentic Wine Beef
Authentic Wine Beef exclusively comes from our friends at the Hikami Farm in Hyōgo, Japan. In their sustainable farming efforts, they raise Japanese black wagyu cattle and add local grape lees — a by-product of winemaking that would otherwise be discarded — to the animal’s homemade feed. The result is a truly remarkable class of Japanese black wagyu beef.
It's All In The Grape Lees
It’s the grape lees that allow for this specific elevated flavour and tenderness because they contain high levels of polyphenol. Polyphenol contributes to the low stress environment of the cattle which has many benefits including improving nutritional balance, blood circulation and overall health of the animal. It’s this combination that allows for a rich flavour to mature.
