Olive Wagyu is the rarest type of beef in the world! Japanese Wagyu beef is world-famous for its unbeatable flavor and soft, tender texture, but somehow Olive Wagyu manages to take all of that to the next level!
Olive Wagyu is reared on Shodoshima (小豆島), a small island located in Japan’s Setouchi Inland Sea (瀬戸内海). It was first pioneered by Masaki Ishii, when he had the idea to turn the wasteful by-product of making olive oil into feed for his Wagyu cattle.
It was also the winner of the ‘highest fat content’ category at the most recent Wagyu Olympics in 2017, officially making Olive Wagyu the most succulent steak in the world!
