Grown in the pristine lands and pure waters of Hokkaido, Nanatsuboshi is one of Japan’s most beloved and well-balanced rice varieties. Named after its “seven stars”—gloss, sweetness, stickiness, aroma, whiteness, texture, and grain integrity—this rice is trusted by both home cooks and professional chefs in Japan. Polished with care in London, it is delivered in a fresh state within 4 weeks of milling. The glossy white grains cook up beautifully soft and fluffy, with a gentle sweetness and refined aroma that unfold with every bite. It holds its texture even when cold, making it ideal for bento lunches and rice balls. Its natural flavour shines without needing added seasoning, providing a satisfying meal with just a simple preparation. Whether you're serving Japanese classics, Western dishes, or bold ethnic cuisine, this rice complements any table with elegance and ease.
If you’re in the UK and looking for the freshest, best-tasting rice, nothing beats rice milled right here in Britain. British-milled rice doesn’t just travel less — it often tastes better than rice that’s simply ‘fresh’.
