Japanese Wagyu

Japanese A5 Wagyu | Kobe Filet Mignon Skewers | BMS 11 | 8 oz

A5 Kobe Wine Filet, Skewered. In Its Most Social Form.

Kobe Wine Wagyu is produced by a small number of certified farms in Hyogo Prefecture where Japanese Black (Kuroge Washu) cattle are raised on a diet incorporating fermented grape pomace (the skins and seeds left from Kobe wine production). That feeding protocol introduces a subtle mineral complexity and aromatic softness to the fat that gives Kobe Wine Wagyu its distinctive character. Kobe Wine is a separate program from certified Kobe Beef. These Filet Skewers are cut from the tenderloin, the most tender muscle on the animal, and graded BMS 11 — placing them at the very top of what this already exceptional program produces, portioned and prepared for a format that makes this level of wagyu accessible in an entirely new way.

JPGA Certified | Full Traceability Guaranteed

Every cut of Kobe Wine Wagyu we carry is certified by the Japan Prefectural Gyusho Association (JPGA) and backed by an individual cattle certificate included with your order. The cattle ID number on that certificate traces your beef directly back to the specific animal, farm, and bloodline it came from. This is the same traceability infrastructure that governs Japan's domestic beef market, and it is the most definitive proof available that what you are receiving is genuine, prefecture-verified Japanese wagyu.

What BMS 11 Actually Means

Japanese A5 Wagyu is graded on a marbling scale of 1 to 12. A BMS score of 11 places these Filet Skewers at the highest tier commercially available. The intramuscular fat at this level is fine, dense, and evenly distributed throughout the muscle — producing the melt-in-your-mouth texture and layered umami depth that defines authentic A5 wagyu at its absolute peak.

Grade: A5 (Yield Grade A + Quality Grade 5) 

BMS: 11

 Cut: Filet Skewers (Tenderloin) 

Weight: 8oz total (two 4oz skewers) 

Origin: Hyogo Prefecture, Japan 

Certification: JPGA Certificate included 

Traceability: Individual cattle ID, farm-to-table verified

Why Kobe Wine Wagyu Filet Skewers Are Something Entirely Their Own

The skewer format does something that a single filet steak cannot — it multiplies the surface area exposed to heat, creating more caramelization and crust per bite while preserving the extraordinary tenderness of the tenderloin interior. At BMS 11, the fat in each cube of filet renders almost instantly on contact with a hot surface, basting the meat from within as it cooks. The grape pomace feeding program that defines Kobe Wine Wagyu adds a layer of aromatic complexity to that rendered fat that is immediately perceptible — softer, more nuanced, and more fragrant than conventional Kobe or any other A5 designation. Two 4oz skewers make this an ideal shared course or a standalone indulgence, and at this grade and provenance, it is one of the most distinctive wagyu formats available anywhere.

Production volumes are extremely limited. Very few farms in Hyogo are authorized to use the Kobe Wine Wagyu designation, and BMS 11 tenderloin portions represent only a fraction of what those farms produce annually.

How to Cook

Instruction
1. Prepare the Skewers

Remove the Japanese A5 Wagyu Filet Mignon Skewers from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.

2. Preheat the Grill or Pan

Preheat a grill or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Sear the Skewers

Place the skewers on the hot grill or skillet. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until a beautiful golden-brown crust forms. Keep a close eye on them to avoid overcooking.

4. Check the Temperature

For a perfect medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of around 130°F (54°C). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.

5. Rest the Skewers

Remove the skewers from the grill or skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute for a more flavorful bite.

6. Serve

Serve the skewers whole or sliced, drizzled with a little high-quality olive oil or paired with your favorite dipping sauce, such as a soy sauce or chimichurri.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Your Wagyu Meat Delivered?

Your order ships frozen via FedEx 2nd Day Air or FedEx Overnight, Monday through Thursday, for weekday delivery. Orders placed by 12 PM PT ship the same day; Thursday shipments go overnight only. Orders of $250 or more ship free by FedEx 2nd Day Air.

Each shipment is packed in an insulated cooler with ice gel packs. The beef usually arrives frozen. Slight thawing in transit is normal, does not affect quality, and the beef can be safely refrozen, though each refreeze slightly reduces quality, so thaw only what you plan to cook.

Every cut is blast frozen and vacuum sealed before it ships. In Los Angeles, same-day delivery is available: text your concierge at (310) 683-7078.

Where Does Our Wagyu Meat Come From?

We name the origin of every cut. Our Japanese A5 Wagyu comes from Miyazaki, Kagoshima and Hyogo (Kobe Wine), and our Australian Wagyu from established Australian farms, named on each product page. We work directly with farms and their long-standing distributors, and every Japanese A5 order ships with its certificate of authenticity.

Is Your Wagyu Meat Grass-Fed?

Wagyu calves start on pasture and grass, then move to a long grain-finishing period of rice straw, corn and barley that builds Wagyu marbling. Japanese A5 cattle are typically grain-finished for well over a year. Australian Wagyu feeding varies by farm and is listed on each product page.
