The present study is part of an EU project. In this paper we examine 211 young bulls from 11 different breeds representing the genetic diversity of European cattle. The objective was to determine the influence of breed (meat with 10 days ageing) on sensory characteristics of beef meat. All animals were fed ad libitum with a standard diet comprising barley, soya and chopped straw. Slaughter was about 15 plus minus 1 months of age. Meat was assessed by a Spanish trained taste panel. Results showed that breed was significant on the studied descriptors. Pirenaica animals (5.62) had the most tender meat and Simmental (4.38), Marchigiana (4.29) and Casina (3.94) the toughest. Limousin (5.30), Charolaise (5.24), Pirenaica (5.12) and Asturiana de los Valles (5.06) showed high scores in juiciness. The breeds with the highest flavour intensity were Asturiana de los Valles (5.40) and Pirenaica (5.38). The lowest score was for Simmental for both flavour (4.85) and juiciness (4.14).
