Celebrating the Authenticity of Wasabia japonica

Most "wasabi" isn't and sadly, most wasabi products in the world contain no wasabi whatsoever. Unlike “faux wasabi” made from horseradish, mustard and food coloring that assaults sinuses when eaten, Real Wasabi™ is heralded by chefs worldwide for its unique agreeable short-lived heat and nuanced sweet aftertaste. We refer to it's memorable flavor as Fiery Taste, Smooth Finish™

Our authentic wasabi products, ranging from plants to fresh rhizomes, leaves, stems, paste and powders are available only via direct sale online, which allows us to control quality and offer you the finest wasabi products in the world delivered to your door.

Experience authentic Japanese wasabi and your taste buds will never be the same.
