Esguerra Farms: Unraveling the secrets of Kurobuta – The Wagyu of Pork

Esguerra Farms is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Lipa, Batangas, where the magic of Kurobuta pork comes to life. Owned by the visionary businessman, Herminio “Hermie” Esguerra, this farm which lies in the shadow of Mount Malarayat is not your ordinary agricultural paradise.

This former horse-breeding farm has expanded its operations quite considerably over the years. Aside from champion racehorses, Esguerra Farms also raises goats, sheep, ducks, chickens, tilapia and hito (catfish), as well as the celebrated purebred Berkshire pigs which produce Kurobuta – the Wagyu of Pork.

Kurobuta – The Wagyu of Pork

Esguerra Farms produces pork that reaches a whole new level of excellence – Kurobuta, the Japanese term for “black pig.” But not just any black pig, mind you! Kurobuta is a prestigious designation exclusively given to purebred Berkshire pigs raised with utmost care and precision.

Picture this: marbled fats within tender, juicy meat that rivals the finest cuts of beef. These characteristic traits make Kurobuta pork a cut above the rest, and Esguerra Farms is the first and only farm in the Philippines that raises these exceptional pigs.

Stress-Free from Farm to Table

At Esguerra Farms, the well-being of the Kurobuta pigs is the top priority. They’re living the dream life – frolicking freely in the expansive, stress-free pastures of Batangas. The barns are thoughtfully designed to ensure minimal stress during the pigs’ different life stages, and some music therapy is even given to these happy hogs.
