Yume Nishiki10 kg Short Grain Rice, 10000 gram

My wife is Japanese and is very discerning about the rice she buys. When our local wholesaler stopped selling Japanese rice we bought this. I believe it is grown in Italy but the quality, texture, taste etc is about the best we have found anywhere at a reasonable price.

Reviewed October 2021:I've got one of those wives that comes from east of the Watford Gap, and she knows a bit about rice. Outside of Japan, we both agree this is the best Japanese rice that's available in 10kg bags, and have been using this brand since we returned to the UK 3 years ago. (previously living in Japan).Its a good all round rice, and we use it for pretty well everything, although when we don't want it to be starchy/sticky we make a point of rinsing it well in cold water.We always cook it with a rice cooker, and it's perfect no matter if we take the regular or the quick cook option with the cooker.Usually buy this brand from the local Asian grocery store which is still 15 miles and then have to pay for parking, so this is good value to buy from Amazon.

My wife is Japanese, infact from Niigata which is famous for its rice and sake. Needless to say most rice isn’t good enough for her.This rice is not grown in Japan. But it’s a Japanese brand that uses Japanese seeds to grow their rice. Like I said my with is picky with her rice (first time she came to uk bought 15kg on the plane)!. But she likes the taste of this rice and many of the Japanese friends enjoy it too. So if you want some great tasting rice we recommend this

Best rice!

I like this rice and repeatedly bought in the past.For the first time, the package was damaged and it was a little disappointment.I did not ask for replacement as it is more troublesome for me to have "return" process and also it was a little scratch. However, I presume under the current situation, some people want to be aware of this case!Product itself is very nice Japanese style rice but please be aware of the review for "packaging" from each seller!

We previously bought Nishiki rice (which is also nice) but decided to try Yumenishiki for a change and have been pleasantly surprised. We cook our rice in a Japanese rice cooker. This seems slightly stickier than Nishiki and it doesn't go as dry as Nishiki when storing leftovers in a fridge and reheating in a microwave. For that reason we'll probably buy this from now on as they are similarly priced.

I am so glad to find this Japanese rice. I liked it and my family like it too.I am from Japan and also my home town is known as one of the famous of Japanese rice bland.So I know the taste of the Japanese rice. It is not the same as real Japanese rice, but I liked it.You can make Sushi, rice ball, no problem. It is hard to find good Japanese rice in Ireland.I will continue to buy this rice. Thank you.

I can't believe what a nice surprise this RICE give me!!! Amazing taste and stickiness absolutely outstanding!!!If the price could be cheaper this rice would be world number 1 because this company would have more and more customers by the day...
