Description
Nagano Koshihikari is Japanese white rice grown in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. Koshihikari is known for its natural sweetness, satisfying stickiness and glossy appearance when cooked, making it one of Japan’s best-known rice varieties.
Nagano’s mountainous environment, clean water and notable differences between daytime and night-time temperatures provide suitable conditions for rice cultivation. When cooked, this Koshihikari has a soft yet pleasantly chewy texture, with a balanced sweetness and stickiness that complement a wide range of Japanese dishes.
Enjoy it with donburi, Japanese curry, grilled fish and other everyday meals, or use it for onigiri and bento where the rice itself plays an important part in the dish.
