Strong stickiness and sweetness that you will never get tired of. Delicious even when cold

Hitomebore is characterized by its strong stickiness and sweetness. The cooked rice is fluffy and the texture is firm. Hitomebore has an excellent balance of stickiness, sweetness, luster, umami, and aroma, making it, in a word, "all-purpose rice.

It does not have a strong, bold flavor, but rather a gentle taste, making it suitable for use with a wide variety of dashi. It also tastes good even when cold, making it ideal for onigiri (rice balls) and bento boxes.
