Dehraduni Basmati Brown Rice from Japan
Dehraduni Basmati is a premium variety of husked brown rice grown in the foothills of the Himalayas in India, characterized by its long slender grains and aromatic fragrance.

The husked state means only the outer hull is removed, retaining the nutrient-rich bran layer.
