## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wicked おいしい
*by A***R on January 29, 2024*

This is some really great rice. I have had troubles finding a consistent brand here on Amazon. Over the years they keep getting sold out or no longer available... I've been through at least 8 kinds! I was a bit skeptical about getting a California seed, but the last three Japanese ones (also koshihikari) I've purchased weren't as good as my previous go-to, which was discontinued (and frankly waaasy expensive!).I am very, very impressed by this rice, and I think Japanese people would be also.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Special Rice
*by L***U on October 6, 2023*

I love the flavor and consistency of the yummy rice. A short grain rice it is great for any Asian dishes, sushi and in Creole and Cajun recipes that call for broken or short grain rice. The company uses a milling process that allows the grains to polish each other without the use of water so it holds its flavor and cooks beautifully.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THIS Rice is Just Like RICE MADE IN JAPAN...LOVE IT!!!
*by P***F on September 4, 2011*

I live in Japan and I came to the states and couldn't find any japanese rice similar to what i buy in Japan. I tried Kokubo Rice, Nishiki Rice and Botan Calrose rice and even Tamanishiki Rice. What I noticed it that the Kagayaki Rice is much more polished than all of the other rice. When I eat it, it's like I never left Japan. I do wish that it was on the Prime Membership for free shipping because I would have bought more than 2. However, it is cheaper that what i was doing before which was shipping rice from japan to my place in the states. That is how much I love Japanese rice. Hope this helps...Enjoy!!!
