From a 1962 butcher shop to the slopes of Kiyomizu-dera
It all began with a single butcher shop, founded in 1962.
"Someday, we will raise the world's best Wagyu with our own hands."
- 1962A butcher shop
For more than 60 years our family has worked with meat every day. Along the way, one big dream took shape.
- MiyazakiRaising our own Wagyu
Instead of only buying finished brand beef, we started from the cattle themselves, in Miyazaki.
- GOTSInheriting a chef's craft
World-class beef deserves world-class cooking. That led us to the original GOTS, a restaurant listed in the MICHELIN Guide for six consecutive years*. We took over its name and the techniques its chefs had refined.
- TodayTaking GOTS to the world
We took over GOTS with a promise: the name will not end in Japan. We will grow it into a brand loved around the world.
What we look for, beyond grade and marbling
A butcher's spirit since 1962. Wagyu raised in Miyazaki. The craft we inherited with the GOTS name. Now a new challenge begins, here on Gojozaka.
* Refers to the original GOTS restaurant before it was taken over. This Gojozaka restaurant is a new location and is not itself listed in the MICHELIN Guide.
