Black Rice – Ancient Supergrain Rich in Antioxidants

Black Rice, often called “Forbidden Rice”, is one of the most nutrient-dense heirloom rice varieties. Naturally rich in anthocyanins—the same antioxidants found in berries—this grain offers deep colour, a rich aroma, and remarkable health benefits. It cooks into a soft yet pleasantly chewy bowl of rice with a mildly sweet, earthy flavour.

Our Black Rice is unpolished, chemical-free, and sourced from trusted farms, ensuring you get the grain in its purest, most nutrient-rich form.
