During the second century A.D., a legendary breed of cattle- called Wagyu- were brought from their home on the Asian mainland to a new life in Japan. The breed was refined in the Kobe region of Japan and has become famous around the world for its intense flavor and tenderness. This ancient breed is the foundation for the elite quality of SNAKE RIVER FARMS American Wagyu (Kobe) Beef.

The origins of Berkshire Pork, Kurobuta, date back almost 300 years when legend has the Berkshire hog being discovered by Oliver Cromwell's army in winter quarters at Reading, the county seat of the shire of Berks in England. Years later, the British government gave the Berkshire hogs to the Japanese as a diplomatic gift. A strong demand was created and still exists today for the superior taste, texture and marbling of Kurobuta pork.
