By Carnimex — boutique meat importer

Carnimex
The Black is a brand to rely on. Its grainfed line is 100% traceable Black Angus, raised in the open green fields of Uruguay and finished on a 120+ day grain diet — producing great marbling and a full, dependable flavour.
The quality is proven: The Black took both a gold and a silver medal at the 2019 World Steak Challenge, a benchmark result for South American grainfed beef.
The Black range extends beyond grainfed: a 100% grassfed line of traceable British breeds for true natural beef, and premium White Quebracho and Marabu charcoal — the professional's finishing tools. All delivered across Europe within two working days.
