## Description

As Americans become more interested in traditional foods and heirloom crops, we're seeing the exciting return of some nearly extinct cultivars of rice return to the gourmet market. Carolina Plantation is proud to announce the debut of "Charleston Gold," an authentic and deliciously aromatic offspring of the legendary heirloom grain, "Carolina Gold." Over the past decade, the collaborative efforts to restore and preserve Gold Seed Rice by the Carolina Gold Rice Foundation combined with the knowledge and research of scientists Dr. Merle Shepard, Dr. Gurdev Khush, and Dr. Anna McClong who had a desire to improve its grain quality, yield, and taste. Their work has culminated in the birth of a new variety of Carolina-grown rice, "Charleston Gold," named for the city where rice cultivation was born in America, circa 1685. This rice has a clean, sweet flavor and superior mouthfeel.

Review: Pricey but great taste and quality! - The claims made in the advertisement for this rice indicates "clean, sweet flavor and superior mouthfeel" - I completely agree. I love rice - grew up in the middle of rice farming. This does have a different feel/flavor than standard white rice, which I also enjoy. Cooking it in chicken or beef stock really sets its off as an addition to any meal - really love it.
Review: Buy this rice!! It’s worth it! - Good tasting rice!!! iYKYK!! SC all the way!!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much Vitamin A is in one serving?**
A: It contains zero vitamin A.  This is a heritage rice which originated in Africa and has a yellow seedcoat as opposed to the more common rice which originated in Asia and has a white seedcoat.  The grains of rice are white.

You may be confusing "gold rice" with "golden rice" which was created through genetic engineering to prevent the death or blindness of roughly two million people a year due to vitamin A deficiency in subsistence diets, truly one of the great triumphs of modern science.  The actual grains of that rice are gold in color because the rice was modified to make beta-carotene, which is also responsible for the yellow or orange color of carrots, sweet potatoes, etc.

**Q: The bag I got is bunch of broken rice grains, After rinsing well, it cooks up more like a porridge rather than individual grains of rice. Normal?**
A: Hey Kids, this is an heirloom rice as advertised. One of the first to be cultivated in the colonies, again as advertised. It was teased back from near extinction by three PHD's. As such, it IS NOT a modern product and is subject to a host of problems bred out of modern cultivars. These responses are curious: did you all not read about what you were buying? This AIN'T Uncle Ben's and does have broken grains: Jeez, get over it and try if you CAN to appreciate the product. What a bunch of whiners and crybabies.

**Q: You've raised the price by nearly $10 in one month.  Why?**
A: Not my Product Just answered A question.
 Yummy eating not sure on pricing.

**Q: Where is this rice grown?**
A: Carolina Plantation is proud to announce the debut of "Charleston Gold", an authentic and deliciously aromatic offspring of the legendary heirloom grain, "Carolina Gold". Over the past decade, the collaborative efforts to restore and preserve Gold Seed Rice by the Carolina Gold Rice Foundation combined with the knowledge and research of scientist: Dr. Merle Shepard, Dr. Gurdev Khush, and Dr. Anna McClong who had a desire to improve its grain quality, yield, and taste has culminated in the birth of a new variety of Carolina-grown rice. "Charleston Gold" ... named for the city where rice cultivation was born in America ... circa 1685.
