What Makes Akaushi Special

Akaushi, literally meaning "red cattle" in Japanese, represents one of the four original Wagyu breeds from Japan. These magnificent animals are renowned for their exceptional marbling, tenderness, and unique flavor profile that sets them apart from all other beef.

At Grazeful Acres, our Akaushi cattle are carefully selected for their superior genetics and raised with traditional Japanese-inspired care methods combined with our sustainable Wisconsin farming practices. The result is beef that exemplifies the very best of both traditions.

The unique genetic makeup of Akaushi cattle produces beef with extraordinary marbling patterns, creating a melt-in-your-mouth texture and rich, buttery flavor that has made this breed legendary among beef connoisseurs worldwide.
