Innovative Beef Raising: Furano Wagyu Now Available for All Restaurants

Revolutionizing Wagyu Farming with Sustainability

Daito Corporation, celebrating its 100th anniversary, is making waves in the culinary scene. Known for its sophisticated Japanese dining experience, 'Koshitsu Kaiseki Kitauji', they will soon launch a new sukiyaki course featuring the exquisite 'Furano Wagyu' across all their restaurants. This initiative is driven by their new collaboration with Taniguchi Farm in Hokkaido, a producer recognized for raising premier breed beef in an environmentally conscious manner.

The Wagyu Revolution

Partnering with specialty meat provider, S Foods, Daito Corporation has unearthed a beef that represents the future of sustainable farming practices. This approach aligns perfectly with the company's mission to create happiness for everyone connected to Daito Corporation. The launch of the new sukiyaki course is a key step towards this goal.

The 'Furano Wagyu' will initially be featured on high-end kaiseki course menus, where it has already garnered acclaim for its rich flavor. This luxurious sukiyaki course, prepared right in front of diners by staff dressed in traditional Japanese attire, promises an unparalleled dining experience.

The Three Key Features of this Initiative

1. Revolution in Raising: A Sustainable Environment
To minimize stress in cattle, the producers have strategically chosen Furano, Hokkaido, as the ideal environment for Wagyu farming. This region's cool and low-humidity conditions perfectly cater to beef cattle. Taniguchi Farm employs a circular agricultural model to leverage local resources and produce meat sustainably, ensuring that their practices are environmentally responsible.

2. Revolution in Feeding: Unique Feed for Remarkable Flavor
The secret to the unrivaled melt-in-your-mouth quality of 'Furano Wagyu' lies in its exclusive feed, which comprises a carefully guarded blend of four ingredients, including dried okara—a byproduct of soybean processing. This feed, combined with pure snowmelt water from the Tokachi Mountains, results in low-melting-point fat that yields wonderfully delicate, high-quality marbled beef.

3. Culinary Revolution: Unmatched Sukiyaki Experience
The beef raised in optimal conditions differs considerably from conventionally raised varieties, ensuring it causes no digestive discomfort. Skilled chefs meticulously calculate the thickness of the meat and the proportions of the dipping sauce to achieve the perfect flavor balance. In private dining rooms, staff will expertly grill each piece of 'Furano Wagyu' before the diners, enhancing the flavor to provide a unique gastronomical experience that tantalizes all five senses.

Future Prospects

At Daito Corporation, the philosophy is clear: "To make everyone related to us happy." Currently, the company is finalizing menu development and operational strategies for the full rollout of the 'Furano Wagyu Sukiyaki Course' across all its venues. As they celebrate their 100-year milestone, Daito plans to continue sharing not only delicious meals but also the underlying stories of their producers and sustainable food initiatives, paired with top-notch hospitality. Details regarding the official launch date and pricing will be shared soon.
