What Makes Shimo Wagyu Unique
A premium Wagyu program depends on care, consistency and an unwavering focus on quality.
Here are the qualities that define Shimo Wagyu.
Shimo Wagyu is ethically sourced from Australian-raised cattle under transparent systems that prioritise welfare and natural growth. The cattle follow a carefully managed long-grain feeding program that encourages even fat deposition and signature Wagyu tenderness.
Each cut, including the rump, is processed with precision and sealed to retain its natural moisture, flavour and structure. This high-integrity handling ensures the beef arrives in exceptional condition, ready for your kitchen.
Understanding MB 8-9 Marbling
Marbling determines the texture, richness and elegance of Wagyu.
On the AUS MEAT scale, Wagyu marbling ranges from 0-9+. MB 8-9 represents upper tier marbling with a complex network of intramuscular fat that melts gently during cooking.
This level of marbling produces a silky, melt in the mouth bite while still offering structure and balanced flavour. The result is an indulgent Wagyu experience that does not compromise refinement.
Why the Rump Cut Works Beautifully in Wagyu
The rump is one of the most underestimated cuts, yet in Wagyu it becomes a revelation.
Here is why this cut excels at high marbling.
Wagyu rump at MB 8-9 benefits from natural muscular structure paired with rich marbling. The meat retains clean beef character while gaining a delicate buttery finish from the intramuscular fat. The texture becomes softer than standard rump yet offers more structure than ultra tender cuts like tenderloin.
This balance creates a versatile cut ideal for grilling, pan-searing, and sous-vide cooking, allowing you to enjoy Wagyu's richness with everyday practicality.
Raised With Care: Shimo Standards
Exceptional Wagyu begins with responsible farming and high integrity systems. These practices define Shimo Wagyu.
Shimo Wagyu is ethically produced within reputable Australian environments that prioritise welfare and transparency. Cattle follow a long grain feeding program over many months to support marbling development and muscular balance.
Processing is handled with precision and attention to detail. Cuts are cryo-vac sealed to lock in freshness and ensure the Wagyu reaches you with its full flavour and texture preserved.
Taste Profile and Texture
Shimo Wagyu Rump MB 8-9 delivers a refined sensory experience that balances richness with elegance.
The flavour is rich and buttery with gentle savoury depth created by the melt of the marbling. Its texture is silky, smooth and slightly structured, offering a delicate bite without heaviness.
High juiciness comes from intramuscular fat that softens during cooking and naturally bastes the meat. The result is a velvety, refined and indulgent mouthfeel that elevates every slice.
