Omino Wagyu. 400 Years of inspiration.

The origin of omino

Originating from the pristine and bountiful natural environment of Shiga Prefecture over hundreds of years the traditional taste of Omi Beef has been passed down the present time with direct linkage to the Wagyu breeds of today.

Enjoyed by the Samurai, Omi Beef has a history dating back 400 years. Even during the Edo Era (1603-1868), when the consumption of meat was forbidden, miso-marinated Omi beef was sold as the health curing agent Henpongan by the Hikone Domain, such is the quality and benefits of this special meat.

With a history and source aligned with the very origins of the Wagyu, Omi beef, it was only fitting that our brand name should be OMINO, a modern and Australian embodiment of Omi; - Omino, the most delicious flavour.
