Japan’s Three Yamato Beef
According to Wikipedia, “The Three Great Beef of Japan” and “Japan’s Three Great Beef” are the most common names for Wagyu beef. The three major beef breeds in Japan are the “Three Great Beefs of Japan,” “Three Famous Beefs of Japan,” “Three Famous Beefs of Japan,” and “Three Major Brand Beefs of Japan.

It is not known when or by whom the name “San-Dai-Gyu” was given. Also, it has not been officially decided which of the three brands is the “Three Famous Beef”, and each of them calls itself the “Three Daiwa Beef”.

The following is an overview of these beef brands. Since the order in which they are listed varies depending on the source, they are listed in alphabetical order for the sake of convenience in this section.

Omi beef. Omi Beef is a Japanese black cattle breed raised in Shiga Prefecture, and female and castrated bulls are certified as Omi Beef. It has a very long history, as it was presented to the Tokugawa shoguns by the Hikone clan in the Edo period (1603-1868) under the name of a curative medicine. At the same time, the active role of the Omi merchants (one of the three major merchants in Japan) also contributed to the beef’s high profile.
Kagoshima Black Beef
Kobe Beef. A trade name for a portion of the “meat” of Hyogo Prefecture’s Tajima beef. It is not the brand name of the “cattle” being raised.
Shiraoi Beef
Matsuzaka beef. A certified female virgin cow raised for 500 days or more in the area south of the Izumo River and north of the Miyagawa River in Mie Prefecture. 1935 Shiraoi Beef won an honorary prize at the National Beef Cattle Livestock Exposition held in Tokyo, and became recognized as a brand name after World War II.
Miyazaki Beef
Yonezawa Beef. Yonezawa Beef is produced in Yamagata Prefecture. Beef that has been raised continuously for 18 months or more in a registered cattle shed by breeders certified by the Yonezawa Beef Brand Promotion Council in the Okitama region (Yonezawa City, Nanyo City, Nagai City, Takahata Town, Kawanishi Town, Iide Town, Shirataka Town and Oguni Town) in three cities and five towns in Yamagata Prefecture.

Impression: I thought the three major beef brands were Kobe Beef, Matsuzaka Beef, and Omi Beef, but it turns out that each brand has its own name for the three major beef brands.

However, I think Kobe Beef, Matsuzaka Beef and Omi Beef are certainly the most famous.

The three most well-known three brands of meat
Matsuzaka beef first appeared on the market in the Taisho era (1912-1926).
Kobe beef was first shipped to foreigners at the opening of the port of Yokohama in 1859.
Omi meat has been offered to Edo along the Nakasendo Highway since the Genroku era (1688-1704) as a high quality edible Wagyu beef.

Omi beef is the oldest brand beef in Japan with 400 years of history.
Omi beef is said to have been offered to the shoguns as a luxury edible Wagyu beef since the Genroku era (1688-1704), and was served to the shoguns and the Gosanke family in Edo. It is the “oldest brand beef in Japan” and has been presented to the Shoguns and the Gosanke in Edo for medicinal purposes, and has been selected as the Imperial Household Agency’s official beef from the Meiji period to the present.
It was also presented to the Shogun and the three Tokugawa families as a “curative medicine” called “Henpongan” in the Edo period.
It is said to have been on the Shogun’s diet many times, even as times changed, and the effects of the meat are said to have contributed to his longevity. The care and attention given to the cattle, the good fertilizers produced in a favorable environment, and the passion and love for the cattle have improved the quality of the meat and nurtured a taste refined by wisdom.
Of the three well-known meat brands, Matsuzaka beef was first introduced to the market in the Taisho era (1912), and Kobe beef was first shipped to foreigners at the opening of the port of Yokohama in the late Edo era (1859), making Omi beef by far the oldest of the three brands.
Omi beef is the Japanese black cattle breed that has been raised the longest in Shiga Prefecture, and was recognized by the Japan Patent Office as a regional brand of beef, and registered as a regional collective trademark (character trademark) on May 11, 2007. (Trademark registration No. 5044958)

Attractiveness of Omi Beef
Omi beef” is an expression of Shiga’s scenic beauty. Omi beef has the longest history and tradition among the three Japanese beef breeds, and is known for its supreme quality.
Omi beef has a low melting point of fat that melts on the human skin, bringing a melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness and a rich flavor that will remain in your memory. Its fine texture, light yet tender texture, and mellow aroma have long been favored by people of all ages and countries.
