Product detailed description

Kitoku Shinryo's Akita Akitakomachi 5kg is a highly popular and premium variety of Japanese short-grain rice, cultivated in the ideal climate and pure environment of Akita Prefecture. Akitakomachi is celebrated for inheriting the best traits of its parent, Koshihikari, but with a slightly lighter, sweeter flavor profile.

When cooked, the grains are translucent, shiny, and tender, offering a satisfying, elastic bite. The balance of flavor—a perfect mix of sweetness and savory umami—ensures that the rice complements, rather than overpowers, the other components of your meal. The 5kg bag is a standard, convenient size for regular home consumption, guaranteeing fresh, high-quality rice for your daily meals.

 

Suggested Use

 

  • Everyday Meals: Serve as plain steamed rice (白米) to accompany any Japanese meal.

  • Bento & Onigiri: Use for making lunch boxes and rice balls, taking advantage of its ability to retain its flavor and excellent texture even when cold.

  • Sushi: Suitable for making sushi rice due to its desirable stickiness and gloss.
