"Mishima" is the northernmost remote island of Yamaguchi Prefecture, located about 45km off the coast of Hagi City.

​

This cow, which is said to be the prototype of Japanese beef, has been around since it came from the Korean Peninsula during the Muromachi period.

As a farming cow, it has supported the lives of the islanders.

With the westernization of Japanese food culture, the mating of Japanese beef and Western breeds is being promoted.

"Mishima beef" has lived on remote islands and continues to this day while preserving pure blood.

It was designated as a national natural monument in 1933, and due to the efforts of limited farmers on the island,

It is protected and carefully raised.

Only a dozen or so cows are on the market a year, and it is said to be a "phantom cow".

About 15 years ago, when I visited Hagi, I met this "Mishima beef".

Fascinated by its wild and powerful taste, which is different from any brand beef,

We will offer this precious "Mishima beef" at Chez Matsuo Shoto Main Store.

Thank you for your cooperation.

In our shop, the blood of this Mishima beef is drawn,

We usually offer the precious "Mishima beef", but

When "Mishima beef" arrives several times a year,

We would like everyone to enjoy this precious beef.
