Koda Farms Kokuho Rose Premium Rice, 20 LB

Koda Farms Kokuho Rose Brand rice is an Heirloom medium grain, Japanese style rice grown by the Koda family since the 1950s in the San Joaquin Valley in California. Fragrant with a slightly sticky and tender texture, this rice is perfect for table rice or sushi.

Unlike modern varieties, Kokuho Rose is a true heirloom, possessing hallmarks that stand in stark contrast to those considered desirable in industrial scale farming. In essence, Kokuho Rose is slow to mature, low in yield, and tall in stature - adding significant effort to its production. Preserving this proprietary strain of rice requires a three year commitment merely to produce the seed, which Koda Farms fulfills by maintaining their private seed nurseries. Needless to say, the Koda family strongly believes the unique characteristics of Kokuho Rose justify these efforts.
