Organic Traditional Basmati Brown Rice is a long-grain aromatic rice with the signature fragrance of Indian Basmati. Grown organically by trusted farmers in the foothills of the Himalayas and nourished with pristine river water, this rice is cultivated in strict compliance with international organic food standards.
In India, basmati is not merely a grain but a matter of national pride, with its heritage protected across generations. Naturally high in amylose, Organic Basmati Brown Rice has a lower glycaemic index and cooks into long, fluffy, and well-separated grains. Unlike polished rice, the brown variant retains its bran layer, preserving natural fibre, vitamins, and minerals, making it a nutritionally superior choice for health-focused consumers and global food brands.
