Satisfied customer, speedy delivery, wish it were cheaper
Beautiful product, well packaged and prompt delivery. Excellent thanks.
Ordered this item from the Wasabi Company (I initially got to hear about them as Wasabi product and plant suppliers - but then found they have a massive rage of all things culinary from Japan).
The product is made in Japan, beautifully glazed and presented in its gift box. The product arrived a couple of days after ordering, and was superbly packaged with sustainable recyclable packaging to ensure it all arrived intact.
As a lover of Japanese cuisine, The Wasabi Co. Are on my list for a return visit.
Lovely smell and taste to this Wasabi Horseradish powder, it could do with a bit more of a kick to it.
Will definitely buy it again.
Beautiful ramen/laksa bowl with cherry blossom pattern exactly as pictured. The colour is more of a pale blue than green in my opinion. But this does not detract from the aesthetics of this lovely Japanese bowl. The cherry blossom pattern inside the bowl is textured which I feel is a lovely touch. The bowl is solid and has a decent weight to it, the quality is obviously good. You cannot use the bowl in a microwave, but this is not an issue.
The Wasabi company packaged and boxed the bowl up very securely so that there was absolutely no chance of it being damaged in transit. All natural materials being used too, so no nasty polystyrene/plastic. Quick delivery and good communication during the delivery process. This is the first time I have used the Wasabi Company, but I would highly recommend them as the products are of great quality.
Thank you for taking the time to write your reviews! These cherry blossom bowls are favourites with us here at Wasabi HQ, most of us have one at home now :) Lovely to know we met your expectations and hope to be able to again in the future
Exactly as pictured, made of beautiful, dark bamboo. Perfect for soup or ramen/laksa dishes. Very light but sturdy construction. I love kitchen utensils made of wood or other natural products and this spoon is beautiful and great value too. Fast delivery, excellent company used for the first time but would highly recommend!
Thank you, we're chuffed the bamboo spoon is a great addition to your wooden kitchen utensils and hope it gives you many happy ramen years :)
Nice leaves arrived in good condition just a bit small
Thank you Richard, we hope you enjoyed the Shiso Leaves :)
Excellent taste Excellent delivery would throughly recommend
Thank you Michael, great to hear you are enjoying the Sanbaizu :)
The sake is very delightful and light but can still get you pretty damn drunk, fantastic
Thank you Eliot, good to hear the umeshu packs punch as well as flavour for you :)
Love wasabi
Thank you Barbara, great to hear and we are definitely with you on that! We are soon going to announce details of our Wasabi Lovers Club with discounts and offers for subscribers, so stay tuned for even more reasons to love wasabi :)
I bought this as never tried before soy sauce like 5 year aged. 5 one is very rich in taste but also 3 year aged is not bad. I will definitely start to buy more of this especially for sushi. It’s worth the price
Hi Emilia, thank you for taking the time to review the Aged Soy Sauce Triple Set and really pleased you enjoyed sampling and comparing the different ones :)
Very nice mayonnaise. I like the bottle as it’s soft and you can squeeze all out.
Thanks Emilia, we hope you keep enjoying the Kenko mayo :)
This is hard to get hold of, glad I found it here! Lovely peppery/numbing qualities, very versatile.
Hi Emma, thank you for your review - yes, it took us a while to get hold of it too but really happy you are enjoying using it :)
Always love Tim's books, clear and easy to use.
Thanks Rhiannon, we agree - Tim is a great writer and his recipes are delicious! We hope his latest, Hokkaido, provides lots of inspiration for yummy dishes :)
I'd never heard of this and so was excited to try.
The rice has a lovely roasted, nutty, rice flavour with a great crunchy texture.
I've only had it straight from the packet but can imagine a lot of possibilities for it's use.
As well as the obvious topping for salads, soups, a general crunchy topper I can imagine it working as a topping for cakes, desserts or petit fours.
I particularly like the idea of using it with a coffee cake!
Thank you Herbie, using the crispy roasted rice with a coffee cake sounds divine! We'd love to see a photo and share your recipe if you do make one :)
I tried these as I'd not heard of them before.
I had them sprinkled over chicken and veg with noodles.
The had an interesting numbing, zesty, sichuan peppercorn type flavour. I've had a flower called "buzz buttons" which had a similar effect.
I'm not sure I'd have these leaves again but im pleased I tried them.
There were a little wilted when they arrived but perked up once I'd soaked them in a little water.
Hi Herbie, thank you for reviewing the kinome leaves, sorry to hear they were a little wilted on arrival but happy they soon recovered with a soak in some water and great you enjoyed trying them :)
High quality shitake from Japan that add great flavour to Dashi stock. I prefer to soak them for a full day and have enjoyed thinly sliced and fried in a little soy or in Ramens. Highly recommend.
Thanks Scott, that sounds delicious and my stomach has started rumbling, may have to be ramen with shiitake for dinner tonight!!
I wish you did bigger bottles! Full of umami, rich, deep ddictive flavour.
Thank you Rhiannon, great you are loving the Sanbaizu! We do have 700ml bottles too, you can find them on the link below - there's not many left at the moment but more are on their way from Japan :)

This is in Marusho's own branding, the 300ml bottles they produce for us which is why they have our own label on them and same great taste!
Gorgeous little plants! Can't wait to plant them up
Thank you Rhodri, best of luck with the wasabi plants and we hope they give you lots of yummy leaves, stems and flowers whilst you're waiting for the stems to grow :)
