Saga Beef
Exquisite marbling, known as "Tsuyasashi," created by top-tier quality standards
Saga Beef introduction
Saga Beef (佐賀牛, Saga gyu) is one of the finest brand-name wagyu in Japan, renowned for its exceptional quality. Only beef that meets strict criteria—Grade 4 or higher for meat quality and a BMS (Beef Marbling Standard) score of 7 or above out of 12—is certified as Saga Beef. Raised in Saga Prefecture, which is blessed with pure water, clean air, and a mild climate, Saga Beef is celebrated for its tender red meat interspersed with fine, delicate marbling. This signature marbling, often referred to as "Tsuyasashi," enhances both the texture and flavor, making it a true delicacy.
