Meat
das-fleisch The Highland Cattle meat is a slowly growing, from high quality and very healthy product, without additives. Movement and cold prevent from all surplus of fat.  It is a dark, tender and juicy beef, it is a fine grained and well marbled meat with an unique taste, appreciate by connaisseurs.

High-quality meat for health-conscious gourmets !
 
One of the most important advantage of highland cattle meat is that this meat has a low lewel of cholesterol and fat, as a recent federal study for meat research found out, this beef has more than 30 times of linoleic, this means of the valuable omega 3 fatty acids. It is proved that a feed only only with hay and grass, without concentrated feed and therefore a slow growth optimize this nutrient in the meat. A study shows that grass has with 45-50% the highest level of linoleic acid, of all the feed. If you compare the relation between linoleic and linoleic acid in grass feed, you will have a rating of 1:0,25. On the other side the feed with grass optimize this positive relation.
The Highland Cattle, growing extensive, also keeps genetic extremly good the fatty acids from green plants in his meat. Due to this kind of breed, Highland Cattle meat is free of growth hormone, pesticide, antibiotic or other chemicals.
