Google says a bathtub holds at least 35 gallons so 8-10 bags oughta do it. **Q: Is this a high glutinous rice used to make fermented rice wine?** A: No. This is a polished, medium grain sticky rice. This is for using as a rice to be served as a side with a meal. Because this is a sticky rice it will be easier to eat with Japanese style chopsticks. You need to look for a glutinous sweet rice for what you want to do. **Q: where is product grown? Thank you.** A: I have a bag, and it says "Product of USA". Yet the distributor JFC international, distributes products from Japan and Asia. I haven't found where it says this rice is grown in California. However California is the 2nd largest producer of rice ,next to Arkansas, in the United States. **Q: What Type Is This?** A: It is a medium white rice. You have to cook it. It is not A quick/minute rice. It is a sticky rice. Where it was grown should be on the products Amazon page. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect rice *by W***B on 23 April 2026* High quality rice, only rice I buy ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delicious Rice for a great Price *by S***H on 27 April 2026* I love Nishiki rice, as the brand is good quality and this is the only type of rice that I actually like eating.
