PRIME BLACK ANGUS
In the land of green pastures,
cattle, cowboys and tornadoes
Swiss Beef

Independent, forward-thinking cattle producers from Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Kansas are responsible for enabling us to offer our Black Angus beef in above-average quality.

The team behind LUMA has visited Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Kansas several times, where they have maintained a friendly and trusting relationship with the local farmers for years. The US Prime/US Choice quality label of their small, independent meat producers indicates a selection that we can include in our range with a clear conscience. The cattle graze on idyllic, vast open grasslands in the Midwest of the USA. In addition, the designation “Non Hormone Treated Cattle” reliably indicates that the cattle are not fed any hormones or prophylactic antibiotics. The meat gains its tender texture thanks to a balanced grain diet and the sustainable care provided by animal-friendly cattle producers. The intramuscular fat content is partly responsible for the fact that our Black Angus beef can be processed to a high standard and tastes so delicate. Incidentally, the slender black cattle received their name at the end of the 18th century from the Celts in Scotland. Angus comes from the Gaelic “Aonghas” and means “first choice.” We still find this very fitting—120 years later.
