I've never really enjoyed Wasabi, because it usually tastes far too similar to horseradish, although I still use a bit whenever I eat sushi. However, I distinctly remember one time I got sushi, I fell in love with the Wasabi. I think the person who described it as "tasting like Wasabi, but without the horseradish flavor" was absolutely right. It had some spice, but was also slightly sweet.
I've never looked into the difference between "common" and fresh Wasabi, but I knew that most had to have horseradish, which has always been to harsh for me to enjoy anything with it.
I'm glad this popped on my recommended.

Real wasabi also rots very quickly, unfortunately. I live in Shizuoka Japan, where some of the best wasabi can be had. I can buy it in my supermarket. However, it is mush in just a few days in the fridge. This is one of the big reasons it is so expensive -- it doesn't travel. Those big stems they were harvesting were really lovely and would fetch about $15 each around here. But the big thing is that you might eat about 2 inches off the end of it, and be done. It just doesn't store. I've tried various ways of freezing it, and it doesn't work (it gets super bitter). You can often buy smaller stems for about $5 each and sometimes I buy them, if I'm doing sashimi, but the wasabi ends up costing me more than the fish! Well, that's another thing about living by the sea in Japan -- really cheap fish. So normally I eat it in the izakaya (sort of like a pub). I often just eat it by itself with beer. People think I'm mad, but it's really delicious!

It was reasly educational for japanese. I haven't seriously thought about how difficult to grow Wasabi, as there were some Wasabi farms near my house in Japan (I live in UK atm). I recommend you to visit the biggest Wasabi farm (Daio Wasabi Farm) in Japan and try fresh one with Japanese Soba noodle which the place is also famous for.
