Takamori Wagyu Cutting Demo and Tasting.
Coastal Delights.
Picture this: a sun-drenched afternoon, laughter floating through the air, and an aroma so divine it beckons even the most discerning palate. This past February we rendezvous with culinary genius Chef Jared Montarbo and the illustrious master butcher, Noriaki Numamoto.
The real star of the show? Takamori Drunken Wagyu. Just the name alone evokes images of culinary splendor and unparalleled flavor. But what sets this Wagyu apart from the rest?
Imagine cattle living a life of luxury at Iwakuni Farm in Yamaguchi prefecture, surrounded by rolling hills and nourished by a unique diet that includes fermented sake mash from the esteemed Dassai Asahi Brewery. Yes, you heard that right - Wagyu on a sake-infused diet! It's like poetry for your taste buds.
But the magic doesn't stop there. Enter Noriaki Numamoto, the mastermind behind the scenes. With over three decades of butchery expertise, including serving as the personal butcher to former Prime Minister Abe, Numamoto-san has truly elevated the art of Wagyu production. Thanks to his innovative approach and the meticulous care given to each cut, Takamori Wagyu has become synonymous with luxury and excellence. And let's not forget about the mouthwatering marbling and tender texture that makes every bite a culinary delight.
Our good friend Chef Jared Montarbo, the culinary virtuoso behind the sumptuous dishes served at our event. From his humble beginnings in his grandmother's kitchen to his current status as a culinary icon, Chef Jared's passion for food shines through in every dish he creates. At the event, guests were treated to an array of delectable dishes, including Chef Jared's mouthwatering Carpaccio and sizzling skewers, perfectly complemented by the finest libations from The Coastal Vine.
So there you have it- a glimpse into the culinary extravaganza that was our Takamori Drunken Wagyu experience. From the farm to the table, every step of the journey is steeped in tradition, innovation, and above all, unparalleled flavor.
