FRESHNESS & EXPRESS SHIPPING (PLEASE READ)

• Express tracked shipping only to maintain freshness

• Estimated delivery times (express):

– Europe: ~3 working days

– International: ~5 working days

• Delivery times are estimates and do NOT include customs clearance, which varies by country

• You will receive a tracking number after ordering

• Rhizomes are harvested the day they ship

• Please ensure someone is available to receive the parcel on the expected delivery day

ARRIVAL & HANDLING (IMPORTANT)

• Remove the rhizome from the vacuum seal upon arrival

• Place it in the refrigerator inside a sealed container, either:

– wrapped in a damp (not dripping) paper towel, or

– with a small amount of cold water in the container

• If the rhizome appears slightly limp after transit, refrigerate it as above for 20–30 minutes

Minor softness after shipping is normal for fresh wasabi and does NOT indicate spoilage.

STORAGE

• Store refrigerated in a sealed container with a damp paper towel or a small amount of cold water

• Best used within ~2 weeks for optimal flavour and aroma

• Small portions of grated wasabi may be frozen if needed

GROWING METHOD & QUALITY

Grown in suspended grow bags using a controlled semi-hydroponic system with perlite and coconut fibre.

This method minimizes soil contact, improves hygiene, and produces clean, healthy rhizomes compared to traditional in-ground cultivation.

GRATING & CULINARY TIPS

• Grate finely just before serving

• Allow grated wasabi to rest ~60 seconds — flavour and aroma peak after a short rest

• Serve immediately; fresh wasabi’s heat and aroma fade quickly

• Ideal for sushi, sashimi, seafood, dressings, sauces, and gourmet dishes

• Wasabi graters are available in our shop
