At Abatti Ranch, Prime is just the beginning. Abatti Ranch Sapphire represents all the attributes of Prime beef, elevated by the distinctive character of American Wagyu. Raised in California's Imperial Valley and selected to the ranch's Sapphire BMS 4-5 standard, this exceptional beef combines beautiful marbling with the tenderness, juiciness, and rich flavor steak lovers expect from Prime.
What makes Sapphire particularly special at Abatti Ranch is its rarity. Thanks to exceptional Wagyu genetics, a carefully developed feeding program, and dedicated cattle care, approximately 60% of current Abatti Ranch cattle grade Diamond BMS 8+, 30% grade Emerald BMS 6-7, and only 10% achieve Sapphire BMS 4-5. This makes Sapphire a remarkably rare expression of the Abatti Ranch Wagyu program and an exceptional value for those seeking a true American Wagyu experience.
Three generations of agricultural heritage meet a new generation of American Wagyu. Raised in California's Imperial Valley under the dedicated leadership of Daniella Abatti, Abatti Ranch builds upon the experience of a third-generation farming family while creating a new legacy in premium American Wagyu. Daniella's commitment to cattle care, nutrition, and quality is at the heart of a program recognized for producing extraordinary levels of marbling.
Treat yourself to the bold flavor and buttery texture of our Abati Ranch Prime Ribeye Steak, a favorite among steak lovers for its exceptional marbling and tenderness. It is a unique opportunity to enjoy 100% American Wagyu beef that is fed, raised, and harvested in the United States by a third-generation family with a deep commitment to quality. Graded Sapphire BMS 4-5, it is a remarkable introduction to an American Wagyu program where Prime is just the beginning.
