Kishu Wasabi Pepper Powder | Stone-Ground Premium Kishu Grape Sansho 5g – Japanese Gourmet Spice from Wakayama
Premium Kishu Grape Sansho from Wakayama, Japan
Kishu, Wakayama Prefecture, is Japan’s leading region for sansho pepper production, accounting for approximately 70% of the country’s harvest. Among these, the highly prized Kishu grape sansho stands out for its large, plump berries that grow in clusters reminiscent of grapes. Known for its rich aroma and tingling, vibrant spiciness, this top-quality sansho has been used for centuries not only as a culinary spice but also as a traditional herbal ingredient in Japanese medicine.
Carefully Selected and Seed-Removed for Optimal Flavor
Our stone-ground sansho powder uses 100% Kishu grape sansho from Wakayama. The black seeds, which contain oils that can diminish flavor, are meticulously removed by hand, leaving only the outer husk. This careful preparation prevents oxidation, ensuring the sansho retains its bright, refreshing aroma for a long time.
Stone Grinding Preserves Aroma and Flavor
Unlike modern milling machines, which can generate heat and reduce the freshness of sansho, we use traditional stone mills to grind the pepper slowly. This method preserves the fresh aroma and the lively, sharp spiciness, capturing the flavor of just-harvested berries in every pinch.
