I bought this tube of wasabi from J shop. At $4.35 it was a bit pricy, but turned out to be worth it to me. "Sawa" means field grown. It adds a sweet, spicy wasabi flavor to food without any nose stinging. I even put some on my wagyu the other night.
With a history of 140 years, Tamaruya has its fields along the Abe River in Shizuoka City, the birthplace of wasabi, and in Fujinomiya City at the foot of Mount Fuji. You can find more info here.
Naturally colored Sawa Wasabi
Wasabi cultivated in pure water. A product using only fresh wasabi with a straightforward piquancy and a touch of sweetness. With a texture close to real root wasabi it adds the perfect accent to great food.
