(from Kagoshima Wagyu Beef)
but if you from the best kind you have to go to Japan (each order come with the ID number of the cow, the death ceriticate from the from staying how old is the cow and what date it was kill)

the export version will be like this

side note unless you know how to handed a good steak (first grill then finish is oven, no more then rare etc) , it is much better to go to a restaurant to eat it then cook it yourself
