About fresh wasabi & our wasabi sets

Unlike imitation wasabi pastes that rely on horseradish and mustard, fresh wasabi rhizomes provide a delicate, aromatic heat with subtle herbal notes. Grated just before serving, the flavour develops slowly on the palate, enhancing sushi, sashimi, steak, or even cheese.

At The Wasabi Company, we are proud to be the first growers of fresh wasabi in the UK. Our plants are carefully cultivated in flowing spring water, replicating the natural conditions of Japan to ensure the highest quality and freshness. When you buy fresh wasabi from us, you’re getting a farm-to-table ingredient that chefs and food lovers around the world prize for its depth and authenticity. 

Discover our fresh wasabi kits & starter sets – including fresh wasabi, graters, growing guides, serving dishes and more – to find the perfect gift for the wasabi lovers in your life, or to treat yourself! You can also explore our main Fresh Wasabi page for our full range of rhizomes, or take a look at our wider pantry collection for more Japanese ingredients to cook with.
