| White Rice | Enjoy the original sweetness and aroma of white rice. |
| 70% Milled Rice |
Similar to white rice - still soft in texture but partially unmilled for extra nutrition. |
| Half Milled Rice |
Darker in color and a bit harder in texture than white rice. Very nutritious - but not quite brown rice. Perfect for those looking for something right in between. |
| Brown (Unmilled) |
Unmilled, meaning it is grainy with a harder texture, but packed with nutrition and dietary fiber. Perfect for a healthy diet. |

The rice is grown sustainably in an area where neighboring farmers and the community work together to preserve the environment. The bamboo forest, an element of the local landscape, is utilized for cultivation and the bamboo chips generated after maintenance are used as organic fertilizer. This increases yields and improves the overall taste of the rice, leading to further improvement of rice cultivation and training of successors. The rice is produced locally in Saga Arashiyama - a popular tourist destination. This is the most sustainable rice you can find as it's used for various purposes, such as preserving and regenerating the landscape and biodiversity.
