JAPANESE WAGYU INSIDE SKIRT KAGOSHIMA A5+ BMS 12

The inside skirt from Japanese Wagyu in Kagoshima is a cut full of character. It has a coarser texture, bold flavour, and a naturally firm bite, but thanks to the extremely high marbling, it nearly melts on your tongue. With an A5+ classification and a BMS of 12, this meat belongs to the absolute top tier. The fat runs deep into the smallest muscle fibers, giving it a creamy tenderness you wouldn't normally expect from this cut.

WHAT IS AN INSIDE SKIRT?

The inside skirt is cut from the inside of the diaphragm. It’s a long, flat muscle with a coarse grain and firm texture, but it’s packed with flavour. Typically, this cut calls for longer cooking times or marinating — but with Wagyu, that story changes completely. Thanks to the high marbling, it can be quickly grilled or seared and then thinly sliced against the grain. This keeps the meat tender and brings out its rich flavour. It shines especially on the grill or as part of a simple yet well-executed dish.

JAPANESE BLACK KAGOSHIMA A5+ BMS 12

This inside skirt comes from Japanese Black Wagyu cattle raised in the Kagoshima region of southern Japan. The animals are raised with care, calm, and a balanced diet, without hormones or unnecessary additives. Only cattle that score exceptionally on marbling, texture, colour, and flavour receive the A5 grade. With a BMS of 12, you’re at the top of that scale. The result is meat with intense marbling that’s never overwhelming. The unique balance of bite and tenderness makes this a truly standout piece of Wagyu.
