Wasabi is like fucking crack cocaine for me, I recently found out there is a place just down the road that grows the real deal, how much better is the freshly grated stuff compared to the green imitation stuff?

The real shit actually tastes slightly sweet and pairs even better with raw fish. If you can get it at a reasonable price, don't hesitate.

Nothing compares to the real deal. It's a lot sharper, suddenly kicks you in the face but then quickly tapers off, doesn't really linger. It's like a rollercoaster for your sinuses

'wasabi' and real Wasabi taste nothing alike, what you like is Horseradish

Not OP, but can you describe the difference?

They're not THAT far off.

Main difference is fake wasabi has a stronger almost artificial or manufactured taste to it. Real wasabi is subtly sweet and much smoother impact of flavor than the fake stuff which tends to seem unrefined in comparison.

I like your description of the flavour difference. The heat of real wasabi is sort of smoother if that makes sense
