Himalayan wild yak

Why did we choose the name Himalayan Wild Yak?

Yak is normally found in the Himalayan mountains. They also can be found in Nepal, Tibet, and Mongolia. Nepal is known as Himalayan country. This is how we get the name Himalayan Wild Yak. Yak was brought to Canada, then later to the United States. Now you can find many yak farms all around the U.S., especially in Colorado, Utah, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania. We get our yak from Pennsylvania.

What is a Yak?

Yak is similar to a bison or buffalo. It’s known as a mountain cow. It is said that they prefer higher elevation and a colder climate. Yaks are also very nutritious. They also have high amounts of omega three. Yak is said to be sweeter and not gamy.

Where is the food from?

Himalayan Wild Yak’s cuisine is influenced by Indian and Chinese spices, since Nepal is near China and India. We use these influences as a reference in making our own style of food. Nepal is home to plenty of great quality world class meals.
