Came as expected. Only wish they came in bigger bags!
At first glance, the color made me think it was brown rice, but the taste is actually quite good.
I was previously eating Nishiki White Rice but figured since I love rice so much I gotta find ways to eat it without feeling less guilty. So I thought about getting brown rice but I did some research about brown rice taking longer people just not liking the taste much. So this is my happy medium, cooks like white rice, tastes the same, just a little more colorful than flat out white but it makes it look tastier!
Nishiki is good and the price is reasonable!
I was planning to buy brown rice to mix with white rice, but this was on sale and the reviews said it was "easier to eat than brown rice," so I decided to try it. It was chewy, easy to eat, and delicious.
The aroma of germ rice is irresistible, each grain is plump and bursting with nutrition, and its high fiber content is invigorating. One bite feels like a full-body recharge, offering both health and deliciousness – truly the king of rice!
It is easier to eat than brown rice and more nutritious than white rice, so I eat it instead of white rice or mix it with white rice.
The rice was slightly brown. Looking at other people's reviews, some of it looked the same as white rice, so there may be variations in the degree of polishing depending on the batch. The taste was fine, and it had a crunchy texture like brown rice, making it delicious. I eat it with a blend of white rice and Nishiki grains.

It has a delicate texture, is fragrant, and is very delicious. We all love it.
What I truly appreciate about this rice is the packaging. It's a large bag of rice, but upon opening, you'll find three individually packaged portions inside. This design helps maintain freshness by dividing the rice into three smaller bags. The flavor of the rice is exceptional, with significantly better nutritional value than plain white rice.
It was delicious, and the whole family loved it.
I always purchase this when is on sale. Its expensive but healthy rice
Huge bag with a lot of delicious rice!
The rice is very fragrant and sweet; soaking it before steaming makes it very soft and sticky!
