From the Brand: More than Just Wasabi

Kinjiurshi Wasabi has an extensive lineup of the most sought-after Japanese condiments in the market, extending beyond the wasabi world. Our logo consists of the character for gold (kin) stylized to resemble Mt. Fuji, the most symbolic and divine landmark in Japan, and the terraced fields in which wasabi is abundantly grown. This combination of Mt. Fuji and terraced fields symbolizes our highest quality of wasabi production.

What Other Products Do We Carry? Besides wasabi, we also carry ume (plum), garlic, ginger, sauces, and our newest lineup includes yuzu.

What Makes Our Products Unique? Although our company name includes wasabi, our love extends to bringing great-tasting Japanese food to customers around the world. We focus on quality over quantity, making our products higher-priced than our competitors. However, we take pride in our sourcing and manufacturing, ensuring we bring only the best to our customers' tables.

Imported from Japan Kinjirushi Wasabi Ume Paste with Shiso has gone through a makeover and now has a brand-new look, but the same great taste remains.

Umeboshi Umeboshi is a dried and pickled fruit that resembles a plum but is actually more closely related to the apricot. This salted and pickled fruit is salty and sour at the same time. It is often used to eat with rice, noodles, rice balls (onigiri), and can also be used with alcohol as a flavor enhancer. Many people in Japan eat umeboshi as a cold remedy, and it has become a staple for many families.

Japanese Nanko-Plum Our ume paste is made from "Nanko-Ume" from the Kishu area of Japan, known for their high-quality plums. Largely harvested in the Wakayama Prefecture of Japan, these Nanko Umes are famous for their quality, taste, and history. Wakayama Prefecture produces about 60% of Japan's plum yield and has a history of over 60 years.
