This rice is so good! Fluffy, fragrant, and absolutely delicious—exactly what you want from a good basmati. Cooks up perfectly every time, no clumps, no guesswork. I’ve been eating rice my whole life, and this is hands down the best I’ve had lately. It’s restaurant-quality, but in my own kitchen. A total upgrade.*I’ve ordered this twice. The second time, one of the packages was delivered with a hole on the side—I don’t understand how things like this can happen. In any case, they refunded my money.

I'm such a fan of true Basmati rice, and this is the best brand I've found. The American basmati rice versions (grown in the U.S.) I've tried just don't taste the same as the rice from the Himalayas. This cooks beautifully in my Zojirushi rice cooker (highly recommended) and comes out absolutely perfect. The price is also good, plus I've never seen this brand in any local stores.

We like this type of rice to make our curry dishes with it as it is very aromatic and its taste is very unique.It is so flavorful especially mixed with veggies,tofu and meats.We also like to eat it just plain with a great soy sauce to enhance the flavor and the texture.This Basmati rice can be cooked in a rice cooker or over the stove top with the right amount of water.It is of the highest quality and the family is enjoying it.

The media could not be loaded. I just started consuming this type of rice. I agree that it may have less sugar content than regular white rice. Need blood work to really know, but not experiencing sensational glycemic raises. For me, its texture and appearance is like that of vermicelli, hence the Title. Aroma: Good. Proportion: 2 cups rice, 4 cups water plus a tablespoon of Great Value Olive Oil, fills my 3 cup Rice Cooker when cooking is complete.

Ok, many of ya'll had me freaking out that I bought a 15 lb bag of plastic pieces. I gave the bag a sniff test, and couldnt pick up any aroma. Doesn't basmati rice emanate a luscious aroma? So I looked up other brands (well known) and saw similar comments about the rice not having an aroma. Then I decided that the only way I would know is just to cook some. First I added a little to a plain pan and proceeded to "toast" it on my gas top stove. I figured if there were plastic bits, I would see it, smell it right? Nothing unusual to be noted. Threw that out, and took fresh rice to add to my rice cooker (rinsed well first). I made according to my machines directions. As it cooked I could smell the aroma that I expected. When it was done, the pieces were perfect. Not sticky, totally fluffy. No gumminess. Tasted as it should.Then I wanted to look over the plastic bag within the burlap sack. In order to pull it out I had to pour out some rice. Glad I did this because once in a bowl (2 quart size), I put my nose to it and could smell the rice just fine. There's that aroma! After I pulled out the plastic bag with remainder of rice, I looked it over for holes, bugs, and debris. No bugs, no debris. I did see some tiny holes. Very small, and I could tell that they were/are most likely puncture marks from the rice. Not many, but enough for me to double bag it with another plastic bag I had on hand. Then I slid it back into the burlap bag and put back what I took out. Really, no problems. I had this at 4 stars, but once I really worked with it and looked it over, I can say that I am pleased. Very happy that the rice is in a plastic bag and not just in burlap.I would consider this again depending on price. I was able to get a 15lb bag for $20 (on sale). I can get 1lb bags at local $Tree for 1.25 per lb, so I didnt really save any buying this.. but it saved me a trip.This page shows old reviews, so it may be beneficial to change the viewing option to see "most recent first".
