My excel rice has a reddish hue. It doesn’t say that it’s parboiled on the outside but it looks and tastes parboiled. Can anyone confirm?

I have always bought India Gate Classic Basmati rice, which our local (Philadelphia) Indian grocers uniformly praise as the best Basmati. It is aged but not parboiled and has no reddish hue. But I can give you no information on India Gate excel basmati. Jim Crawford

Is this rice supposed to be white when it arrives? It's got a orange hue to it.

It has slightly very light beige, but it will cook white.It should not be orange

is the rice from india not california?

This rice is grown and processed in India.
