About Kobe Wine beef
- Hyogo Prefecture. Raised at a ranch certified by the Kobe Wine Beef Council, in the same prefecture as the city of Kobe.
- Japanese Black cattle. Kuroge Washu, finished on feed that includes grape pomace left over from making Kobe Wine.
- Not certified Kobe Beef. Kobe Wine is its own program, and we label it that way.

Why a NY Striploin in A5
The NY Striploin has a tighter grain and a firmer bite than a ribeye, with a single band of fat along one edge. At BMS 11 the marbling runs evenly through the whole steak, so it eats rich but clean. If A5 ribeye feels like a lot, the striploin is often the cut people come back to.
Compare the two cuts in what is a Wagyu strip steak.
How to cook an A5 NY Striploin
- Thaw. 24 hours in the refrigerator, still sealed.
- Portion. Cut into 4 to 5 oz pieces, or slice across into strips about 3/4 inch thick. Salt just before cooking.
- Render the edge. Stand the steak on its fat edge in a hot, dry cast iron pan for 1 to 2 minutes. That fat is your cooking oil.
- Sear. Sear each side 45 to 90 seconds, to about 125 to 130°F.
- Rest and slice. Rest 3 minutes and slice thin across the grain.
Pairing ideas are in what to serve with Wagyu.
Authenticity
Every A5 Japanese order ships with its certificate from the Japan Prefectural Gyusho Association (JPGA), showing the individual cattle ID, so you can trace your beef to the animal it came from. See an example on our certificates page.

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.
