Yaebara boasts unique clay soil and is irrigated by the pure snowmelt from the Chikuma River originating from Mt. Yatsugatake. The significant diurnal temperature variation at high altitudes allows the rice to perfectly lock in starch and essence during ripening.

This limited-production premium rice is cultivated using special farming methods. As an improved variety of Koshihikari, its grains are small and delicate, emitting a subtle, captivating milky aroma. Its low amylose content and extreme stickiness result in an exceptionally soft, chewy, and sweet texture. It remains delicious and chewy even when cooled, making it a favorite in Japanese households and a top choice for bento boxes, onigiri, and everyday meals! Niigata Nan-Yubari Koshihikari (300g vacuum-sealed bag) Produced in the heart of "Nan-Yubari," Japan's premier Koshihikari region.
