Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

My sticky rice is always prefect and makes awesome sushi rolls. Works beautifully in the rice cooker. Better than the tamanishiki in my own opinion. It tastes good, but just i like the nishiki, better, for some reason.

This rice is great. Absolutely fantastic rice. It is quite exquisite when it comes to rice.

This size bag is convenient for occasional rice use and is not available locally, so i am pleased with the purchase. I have asian superstore markets (mutsuwa and hmart) located not too far from me in the chicago area.

Cons

To go gaga over it, as some reviewers have, is quite frankly, pure hyperbole. Bought product and it is infested with bugs.

Quality

Deducted one star only for that reason - not taking anything away from the quality of the product!

Imported japanese rise too expensive for them; tamaki gold is their preferred product.

Price

Well after trying it i can say that i will go back to kokuho rose rice as it is just as good and costs significantly less.

I really do not comment on the price, but this is a little over the top price wise.

I thought the price was fair for the big bag that you get.

I do find the price quite expensive.

Shipping

It is sold at a japanese food store in the area, but it’s a bit of a drive so i was very happy to find it on amazon with prime shipping.

Competitiveness

Hands down the best short grain japanese-style rice in the usa.

Better than the tamanishiki in my own opinion.

Try it with some aji nori furikake seasoning.

We bought this brand of rice because a chef recommend it.
