NISHIKI Premium Brown Rice, 5-Pound

Nishiki’s premium bag has rice with great texture and delivers a sturdy chew that holds up to anything – curries, stir fries, or late-night regret meals. It cooks in about 50 minutes on my rice cooker’s brown rice setting, so yes, you’ll need to plan ahead unless you enjoy crunchy rice ASMR. The aroma is pleasantly nutty when cooking, enough to make your neighbors wonder if you’ve finally stopped ordering takeout. The grains look clean and consistent with no surprise guests (aka bugs) scurrying around, unlike certain discount brands I’ve tried that felt like an audition for Fear Factor. The packaging is thick and reliable, though after wrestling with the resealable strip a few times, I gave up and dumped it into an airtight bin for sanity’s sake. Overall, if you want a no-nonsense brown rice that tastes great, behaves predictably, and doesn’t turn to mush, this is a fantastic purchase!

Absolutely love this brand rice! I just recently switched to brown rice. I used this brand for their white rice as well. Hands down best rice brand I’ve ever bought. I’ve been using this brand for over 2 years now and won’t buy any other brand. I usually make more than I need because microwaving it really doesn’t make a difference. It will still taste the same, not be super dry and still sticky. Definitely won’t be switching brands anytime soon unless this company happens to go somewhere.

Nishiki Premium Brown Rice has exceeded my expectations in several ways. As someone who appreciates good quality rice, I found this product to be a fantastic choice. The rice cooks perfectly in my Zojirushi rice cooker on the brown rice setting. Following the line inside the pot for how much water to add and how many cups ensures consistent results every time. The grains come out firm yet tender, maintaining their integrity without becoming mushy. In terms of flavor, Nishiki Premium Brown Rice has a subtle nuttiness that I really enjoy. It adds a delicious depth to dishes and pairs well with a variety of cuisines. Whether serving it alongside stir-fries, curries, or using it in sushi rolls, it consistently enhances the meal. Another aspect that pleasantly surprised me was the value for money. Despite its premium quality, Nishiki rice is actually more affordable than what I used to buy at my local Asian grocery store. This makes it not only a superior choice in terms of quality but also a cost-effective option for regular use. Packaging-wise, the 15-pound bag is convenient for storage and ensures that I always have a steady supply on hand without worrying about running out too quickly. Overall, I highly recommend Nishiki Premium Brown Rice to anyone looking for a reliable and flavorful option for their pantry. Its consistent quality, great texture, and competitive pricing make it a standout choice in the realm of brown rice options available today.

I found this rice to be excellent, no bugs, nice clean fresh smell and taste. It don’t stick together unless you boil it to mush. A+++++

Very good, though some completely unhusked grains. We did not see any bugs, and the texture and flavor good.

Started to buy this brand in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic and I do not regret the decision. It cooks easily and has great fiber content while delivering nutritional value. It has a sturdier grain than Jasmine rice and no aroma but a nutty texture.

Subscribe in this product for delivery in every few weeks, and its never fail. The brown rice product has good quality and dont get bad so easily even in 2nd day. Always choose brown for its more healthier. Price is really good and worth every penny.

I think this is the best brown rice you can buy. Clean; nutty taste, chewy, delicious!
