Premium wagyu brands Shiro Kin Full Blood Wagyu and Tajima Australian Grainfed Wagyu recognised for superior quality at last night’s Australian Wagyu Association Wagyu Branded Beef Competition.
It was the “melting, creamy caramel mouthfeel” that judges noted for Shiro Kin Full Blood Wagyu as it broke a competition record for highest marbling percentage. Shiro Kin was awarded Gold in the Fullblood Wagyu class and went on to take out Reserve Champion Wagyu for the entire competition.
Meanwhile, in the Commercial Wagyu MB 5-7 class and Open F1 class, Tajima Australian Grainfed Wagyu was awarded Gold and Silver respectively.
Shiro Kin and Tajima are the flagship brands of Andrews Meat Industries’ suite of premium wagyu.
Jeremy Stuart, General Manager of Export at Andrews Meat Industries, expressed his thanks for the outstanding team that’s behind the success of both brands.
“It starts with our producers and flows all the way through to the people packing it to go to our clientele – there’s a lot of passion for producing our wagyu that flows through onto plates around the globe,” Jeremy said.
“From that, it’s a great honour to be recognised – both Shiro Kin and Tajima are brands we’ve been continually perfecting for over a decade and they remain firm favourites in both our domestic and export markets.”
Presented by the Australian Wagyu Association, the Wagyu Branded Beef Competition is an annual event recognising the most exciting and innovative wagyu brands. Considered the pinnacle of Australian wagyu branded beef competitions, it provides an opportunity for brand owners and producers to showcase their products and benchmark them against competitors.
