The Tender and Juicy Delight of Hakata Wagyu

Hakata Wagyu is a cultivar of Japanese beef raised in Fukuoka Prefecture, where registered farmers prioritize the health management of the cattle. These cattle are primarily fed with rice straw sourced from the rich agricultural lands of Fukuoka, a method that requires around 20 months of careful nurturing. The result is a meat quality that’s tender, bursting with juices, and offers a rich, intense flavor profile that has garnered praise for its amazing taste.

Discover the Unique Taste of Hakata Jidori

Hakata Jidori is a local breed of chicken born out of the desire to enhance the flavors of traditional Fukuoka dishes such as Mizutaki (chicken hot pot) and Gamen (braised dish). This chicken variety is praised for its umami which grows stronger with every bite, alongside a delightful bite that provides a satisfying texture. Moreover, it contains considerable amounts of inosinic acid, which contributes to its rich, pure flavor devoid of any off-tastes.
