Wagyu Beef Tallow Glass Jar

All of our Wagyu ranches follow the Japanese model of raising cattle on open pastures. However, honoring Japanese traditions, our suppliers finish the cattle on proprietary diets that can include brewers grains and other proprietary feeds. Therefore, our Wagyu Beef Tallow is not 100% Grass Fed.
