Buy real wasabi, UK-grown in the south of England
Did you know? Most of the 'wasabi' eaten outside of Japan is actually a mixture of horseradish, mustard and green food colouring. The real deal is much rarer.
We're the UK's only growers of fresh wasabi, growing our plants in mineral-rich water on our Dorset and Hampshire farms. The prized rhizomes take at least 18 months to reach harvest - so our stock is subject to seasonal availability.

Trusted by top chefs and Michelin-star restaurants
We pay very close attention to quality and provenance. As a result, both our produce and our imported goods are used in some of the best restaurants in the UK and Europe. We source the finest ingredients from artisanal Japanese suppliers, many of whom have been in business for centuries.
Cook authentic Japanese recipes with proper ingredients, and taste the flavours as they were originally intended.
Grow your own Japanese ingredients
Alongside wasabi, we grow a wide range of other Japanese ingredients for online purchase - or you can buy plants to cultivate them in your own home. You could grow wasabi, citrus trees (such as yuzu), shiso herb, sansho pepper, edamame beans and more - all in your back garden. Our plants are subject to seasonal availability.
From watercress farm to online Japanese supermarket
Our Dorset and Hampshire farms have grown watercress since the 1850s. But it wasn't until a chef visited us in 2010 that we thought about switching things up. He remarked that the only other crop he had seen growing in similar conditions was wasabi in Japan. That was enough to plant the seed.
