As a result in our commitment to quality, Mt. Fuji beef is known for its exquisite flavor and tenderness. It is a truly special treat that you will never forget.

Mt. Fuji Wagyu Beef

Raised in the Pristine Foothills of Japan's Highest Mountain

  • Mt. Fuji Wagyu is a rare and prized type of beef that is raised in the pristine foothills of Mount Fuji. The cows are fed a special diet of locally grown grains and grasses, and they are massaged daily to promote marbling. The combination of the high altitude, clean air, and rich soil creates an ideal environment for raising these cows, and the resulting beef is known for its exquisite flavor and tenderness.

    The production base of Mt. Fuji Wagyu is located in Fujinomiya City, Shizuoka Prefecture. This area is characterized by Japan's highest height difference.

  • The lowest point is 35 meters above sea level, and the highest point is 3776 meters at the summit of Mount Fuji. The spring water and volcanic ash soil from the basalt rocks of Mt. Fuji, where the temperature difference caused by this height difference,created a rich land and created the best livestock farming environment.

    The result is a truly unique and special type of beef that is sure to please even the most discerning palate.
A Boon for Beef

The Natural Mist of Asagiri Plateau

Surrounded by Mountains, the Asagiri plateau stretches across the foothills of Mt. Fuji in Fujinomiya City.Its name, which means morning fog, stems from geography and climate conditions conducive to the formation of fog in the morning. This plateau is known for its natural mist, which is said to have beneficial effects on the environment and human health.

Our ranch site is 400,000 square meters and is home to over 100 cows. The cows are raised on a diet of fresh grass and hay, and they are free to roam in the open fields. The mist that surrounds our ranch helps to keep the air clean and free of pollutants, which in turn helps to produce healthier cows.

The Secret to Raising Healthy Cows

Vanadium-Rich Underground Water

The underground water of Mount Fuji is highly dissolved in vanadium. This is because Mount Fuji is a volcano formed by the eruption of a large amount of basaltic magma containing a large amount of vanadium over a period of about 100,000 years.

There are no rivers on Mount Fuji, and the water that seeps into the ground is rich in vanadium while slowly seeping through the hot basalt layer consisting of seven layers.

This vanadium-rich underground water is said to have a number of health benefits for cows, including:

  • Improved growth and development
  • Increased muscle mass
  • Enhanced immune system
  • Reduced stress levels
  • Improved fertility

The vanadium in the water helps to break down fat molecules, which results in leaner, more tender beef. The water also helps to improve the flavor of the beef, giving it a more complex and nuanced taste. Thus, overall helps to improve the taste and texture of beef.

100 L OF WATER PER MINUTE

How This Farm is Providing the Best for its Cows

This farm in Japan has installed a pump that pumps 100 liters of vanadium-rich underground mineral water per minute. The water is said to have better research results than the commercially available vanadium water that we usually drink. All cattle on the farm are fattened using this water. The owners of the farm believe that water is essential for health. They know that 60% of a person's body weight is water, and they value water as a source of health. That's why they dig pump wells and use vanadium water to give the cows the best water possible.

The Wind of Mount Fuji

A Natural Phenomenon with Many Benefits

  • Mount Fuji is known for its strong winds. The wind blows down from the mountain and up from the sea, creating a vortex of air that is said to be the strongest in Japan. According to the wind data of Mt. Fuji from the Japan Meteorological Agency, there are 121 days a year when the maximum wind speed exceeds 20 meters, which is equivalent to typhoons, and 11.4 days when the maximum wind speed exceeds 30 meters.

    The foot of Mount Fuji, which has no obstacles, is drawn by this wind and is well ventilated. This makes it an ideal place for raising cows. The strong wind also helps to keep the air clean and free of pollutants.
