What is Basmati Rice?

Basmati rice originates in India and the word is a fusion of two Hindi words, ‘bas’ and ‘mati’ which means ‘aromatic’. It is often said that when someone cooks basmati in their house, the streets fill up with its aroma.

One of the reasons for the popularity of basmati rice is the fact that it is very different from other varieties available in the market. Basmati is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, carbs, fiber and protein. It is also healthier than other types of rice due to its lower fat content which makes it ideal for diet-conscious people.

Our team of experts work hard to bring you the best quality basmati rice from the Himalayan valleys and foothills. Our authentic and premium basmati rice is aged traditionally to give it a vintage touch. Our basmati has an easy-to-cook option and is perfect for curries, pilafs, stir-fries or as a side.
