My Uncle owns and operates High Desert Wagyu and It all started with a simple question:

he asked me, “Do you want some Wagyu fat? Otherwise, I’m just going to throw it out.”

I didn’t know much about tallow at the time, but it felt wrong to waste something so natural, so valuable- and so full of history.

That first batch of fat became my introduction to tallow: a traditional, time-honored fat that our ancestors used for everything from cooking to skincare. I rendered it myself, learned the process and began using it at home. What started as an experiment quickly became a passion. 

We live in a world that is rediscovering the wisdom of natural, whole ingredients-and tallow is at the heart of that return. Whether it’s nourishing skin, fueling a recipe, or supporting a no-waste lifestyle, tallow is a powerful reminder that nothing needs to be wasted.

What I love most about these products is knowing exactly what’s in them. No long list of unpronounceable ingredients. No synthetic fragrances. No harsh chemicals or toxins. Just simple, pure, real ingredients.
