There are all kinds of stories about these cattle from Japan that are massaged, fed on beer and then sold at extremely high prices in Tokyo's top restaurants.

The Japanese have dedicated so much care and attention to the rearing of this breed of cattle, focusing on the quality rather than the quantity of their beef. The result is the ‘caviar of beef’. Wagyu also known as Kobe-style beef, the meat from these cattle are known worldwide for its marbling characteristics, it has a naturally enhanced flavor, tenderness and juiciness, and a high market value. Grocery stores in the United States will sell cuts of American Wagyu for $40/lb to $150/lb.
Because of the Wagyu cattle's special diet including beer and sake, wagyu beef contains a higher percentage of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids than typical beef. The marbling also improves the ratio of monounsaturated fats to saturated fats.

There are four major breeds of Wagyu (wa means Japanese, and gyū means cattle, or simply "Japanese cow"): Japanese Black, Japanese Brown, Japanese Polled, and Japanese Shorthorn. Japanese breed names include: Tajima, Tottori, Shimane, Kochi and Kumamoto.
