Nishiki Premium Brown Rice, 15-Pounds Bag

Nishiki’s premium bag has rice with great texture and delivers a sturdy chew that holds up to anything – curries, stir fries, or late-night regret meals. It cooks in about 50 minutes on my rice cooker’s brown rice setting, so yes, you’ll need to plan ahead unless you enjoy crunchy rice ASMR. The aroma is pleasantly nutty when cooking, enough to make your neighbors wonder if you’ve finally stopped ordering takeout. The grains look clean and consistent with no surprise guests (aka bugs) scurrying around, unlike certain discount brands I’ve tried that felt like an audition for Fear Factor. The packaging is thick and reliable, though after wrestling with the resealable strip a few times, I gave up and dumped it into an airtight bin for sanity’s sake. Overall, if you want a no-nonsense brown rice that tastes great, behaves predictably, and doesn’t turn to mush, this is a fantastic purchase!

I’ve been switching to healthier food options lately, and this brown rice has become a staple in my kitchen. If you’re looking for a wholesome, fiber-rich alternative to white rice that still tastes great, this is it.First off, the quality of the grains is excellent. They’re clean, uniform, and free of debris. After cooking, the rice comes out fluffy, slightly chewy, and nutty — exactly what good brown rice should be. It holds its shape well and doesn’t get mushy or overly sticky like some lower-quality brands I’ve tried before.What I appreciate most is that this rice is versatile and satisfying. I use it for everything — stir-fries, grain bowls, soups, even as a side with simple steamed vegetables and protein. It pairs well with almost anything and makes every meal feel a bit more wholesome.From a health standpoint, it’s packed with fiber, essential minerals, and complex carbs, which help keep me fuller for longer and support better digestion. It’s a great choice if you’re trying to eat clean, manage weight, or just feel better overall.Cooking it is straightforward — I usually rinse it once or twice, then cook with slightly more water than I would for white rice. It takes a bit longer to cook (about 40–45 minutes), but the nutritional payoff is worth the extra time.The packaging is also great — resealable, sturdy, and keeps the rice fresh for weeks. I appreciate that there’s no strong odor or strange aftertaste, which I’ve unfortunately experienced with some bulk options before.Overall, this brown rice is now a must-have in my pantry. Whether you’re focused on health, taste, or both, this product delivers. It’s affordable, filling, and a great foundation for nutritious meals.

Pretty good so far. My dogs tear this up!!! I find dog foods to be out of pocket priced and they make my dogs sick. So I actually cook for them every single day. I bought this trying something new for them. And they absolutely love this rice. I have also tried this rice. And for brown rice. I was surprised I liked it. Anyways I will be buying again!

I’ve been ordering this regularly and it never disappoints. Clean, fresh, and cooks up perfectly with a great aroma. The grains have a nice texture and the quality is always consistent. It’s a staple in my pantry — highly recommend if you’re into brown rice

This is a good medium grain brown rice which I have used before. I would have given it another star, but the package arrived with a slit, apparently caused by a knife or other sharp object, and some of the rice leaked out. Not a big deal, to be sure, but one expects that packages of edibles arrive intact.

Great rice - we even got a bag of the shinmai crop! ("New rice" crop - even fresher and more delicious than the normal, which is already yummy.) I like to mix brown and white; this brand has both.

Very delicious brown rice with instructions on bag as to how to cook. Don't throw away the bag as it allows the rice to breathe.

This rice is wonderful I put it in my rice cooker and it comes out delicious every time. It's fluffy and tasty unlike other brown rice I've tasted. Also, you get a lot for the price.
