Graded long grain rice under warm light
Our Rice

Six grains, milled apart.

Every variety runs on its own milling, polishing and grading settings — because Ponni and Seeraga Samba have nothing in common except being rice.

The Collection

What we mill, and what it is for.

Tell us what you cook — or what your customers ask for — and we will point you to the right grain. All six varieties are available in retail packs and bulk bags.
