The present invention provides an alcohol-containing wasabi, a wasabi extract solution and a wasabi extract capable of stably maintaining flavor and pungent taste of freshly harvested wasabi for a long period of time. The alcohol-containing wasabi is prepared by impregnating wasabi with alcohol. The method for obtaining the alcohol-containing wasabi comprises the steps of impregnating the mass of wasabi with alcohol by permitting wasabi to contact alcohol or an alcohol aqueous solution, and allowing wasabi to stand for 20 minutes or more at a temperature from 5 to 60.degree. C. The wasabi extract solution is obtained by distilling of the alcohol-containing wasabi. The wasabi extract is obtained by diluting the wasabi extract solution with water to an alcohol concentration of 30% by weight or less to form precipitates, and by filtering the precipitate.
