Japan 无麸质 农场之旅(2)

David will take you on a breathtaking walk through the countryside of Okutama, to his natural wasabi farm, a magical place in which he will inspire you with his knowledge and passion of this amazing plant. Pure authentic fresh wasabi is a wonderful taste sensation, don’t hesitate to book into this experience. A highlight of our holiday!

An amazing experience! David has a lot of knowledge about the history of wasabi and the area in which his farm is. It was a great getting to try different varieties and tasting the differences. I would recommend this to anyone looking to do something a bit different over the “traditional” experiences.

The wasabi farm experience was phenomenal. A beautiful walk through the woods, as well as education about the plants, animals and geography that affect the growing region was followed by sashimi and beef with freshly grated wasabi right out of the stream. David was a patient and careful guide, and was both thoroughly knowledgeable on the subject of wasabi growing as well as an advocate for more natural wasabi rather than the fake "horseradish" wasabi you get at most restaurants. It is a rather active walk - about 1.7 miles round trip, uphill all the way to the location, so when he says "where a good pair of walking shoes or boots" he's not kidding. We arrived early and enjoyed the local scenery and nature. It's a welcome break just an hour our of Tokyo city downtown. "Take a bath in nature".

Thank you very much David for sharing your world with us. It was a wonderful experience!

David has a marked English humour, so be prepared, but once over it he's a tremendous host. He will disclose the best kept secrets of wasabi farming, tasting it just at the production spot is something you will not do so often. Definitely a "cannot miss" experience
