CONVENTIONALLY FARMED TABLE RICE

Kokuho Rose®

Kokuho Rose LogoHeirloom Japanese style medium grain rice, developed in the 1950s specifically for our microclimate and soil type. Friction milled white, with a delicate floral flavor and a gently sweet afternote, it's light on the palate. Touted by gourmets as the perfect steamed table rice, its tender and sticky texture makes it also outstanding for sushi. Versatile and appropriate for other preparations dependent on a similarly starchy profile such as Italian risotto and Spanish paella. Less than 2% broken kernels.* Certified Kosher (KSA), GMO-free (Non-GMO Project Verified), Gluten-free. Pure unadulterated rice – no additives of any sort.

Package formats: 5 lbs, 10 lbs, 15 lbs, & 50 lbs

Unlike modern varieties, proprietary Kokuho Rose is a true heirloom, possessing hallmarks antithetical to those prioritized in industrial scale farming. In essence, Kokuho Rose is slow to mature, low in yield and tall in stature – characteristics adding significant effort to its production. Preserving this unique strain of rice requires a three year commitment merely to produce the seed, which we fulfill by maintaining our on site, private seed nurseries. A perfect expression of the land it bred to thrive upon, we consider our rice to be "au terroir". 

* USDA industry standards allow up to 4% broken kernels.
