Windsor Meats:Your Vancouver Destination for Award-Winning Kagoshima Wagyu Beef

Windsor Quality Meats, known for their commitment to providing customers with the finest meats, is one of the few butchers privileged to carry the highly sought-after Kagoshima wagyu beef, winner of the prestigious 2022 Wagyu Olympics.

This prized event, held once every five years, was held in the winning Kagoshima prefecture where we source our A5 Wagyu. A record 438 cattle from 41 of Japan’s 47 prefectures were entered into this year’s competition, with more than 300,000 people attending over the five days.

This exceptional type of Japanese beef is renowned for its superior marbling, flavour, and texture. The high international demand for wagyu far outstrips supply, making it an expensive and often difficult-to-obtain delicacy. By offering Kagoshima wagyu, Windsor Quality Meats solidifies its reputation as a premier butcher for discerning meat connoisseurs.

The 2022 Wagyu Olympics saw competitors from across Japan showcasing their cattle, judged on a variety of criteria such as appearance, productivity, and marbling. As the winner of this esteemed competition, Kagoshima wagyu stands out as a symbol of unmatched quality in the world of beef.

Cattle raised for Kagoshima wagyu are held to the highest standards, resulting in A5 graded cuts with a beef marbling score of 10 to 12. In comparison, cuts in Canada and the United States do not have a marbling system, but if it were, the results would probably return a low score.

The Japanese method for raising wagyu is akin to the small feed-lot system used by small British Columbia farms, where a select group of professionals take extraordinary care of their animals. This dedication to quality is also evident in the Wagyu Olympics, which offers no cash prizes but instead, the honor of receiving an award and the market interest that follows.

Now you can buy this award winning Kagoshima A5 Wagyu from Windsor Quality Meats.
