Good Japanese rice! Shining sticky rice with the creamy rice aftertaste..

This rice is really high-quality. It's very hard for me to get quality Japanese rice where I live and this served us great used to all summer. Also would say that it pairs really well in terms of hydration in accordance with my rice cookers measurement guide (Zojirushi)

Real traditional Japanese short-grain rice. So different from US short-grain rice. Absolutely delicious.

Great product . We love the rice. It is consistently made. The taste is great and we eat it at almost every meal. It is very sticky but not so sticky that it makes a great side dish. It is truly from Japan . This is our second time purchasing it and will keep doing so.

Amazing rice

Wonderful taste and texture. Great value for the money. The kids love it.

After trying this rice, I don't think I can go back. I didn't know rice could be this good, but after rinsing it and throwing it in my zojirushi rice cooker I've seen the light. I understand now. It comes out almost like perfect pasta-flavor and texture are out of this world, and it keeps you full longer than other rice. Really, try it, you won't be disappointed.
