Hasegawa Farm

For over 60 years, Hasegawa Farm has followed its own philosophy of Japanese beef. While most producers pursued the highest Wagyu marbling grades, Hasegawa-san set out to create a beef his friends and neighbours could enjoy regularly without compromising the flavour and character of Japanese Wagyu. To achieve this, he developed his own F1 Wagyu - a unique cross between Kuroge Pure Wagyu and Holstein Cow.

Inspired by local Tochigi-ken winemakers, Hasegawa-san introduced a unique feed of fermented wine grape marc, home-grown barley, soybeans, and rice straw, resulting in healthy, vibrant cattle and a slightly leaner A3 Wagyu with balanced richness, remarkable juiciness, and deep umami finish.
