Love it but if with brown basmati will be perfect!

We are rice eater in AR. I’m so glad that Sam’s carry basmati because I can’t find any basmati rice in AR. If Sam’s carry brown basmati rice,,,,, it would be superb perfect!

Basmati Rice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always said this app tells you what you need! Some things I wouldn't venture out and buy myself. I always thought rice was rice, but this brand has proved me wrong. It's delicious!! I've definitely upped my game.

Will purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I woke up sick today with a craving for chicken and rice soup. I used my rice cooker and cooked the rice first. I love plain white rice and was able to settle my stomach with the rice before adding it to the soup. The rice itself held up so well in the broth. I brought some to work and absolutely loved it reheated as well.

You will not be disappointed with this product.

We first purchased this at least 15 years ago at Sam's and were very impressed with the product. Perfect, White Fluffy Rice, never sticky or clumpy. 20 Pounds is a lot of rice, but we kept it in zip lock bags in the freezer for years without a problem.

Good Quality and Good Price

This isn't the best basmati rice we've ever had, but we don't have many options where I live. This is much better than the brands labeled in the U.S. (including the Walmart brand). We have had no problems with quality or consistency. The price is excellent! I have paid $5 more at Asian and Middle Eastern markets for the same rice.

I bought this rice for the first time via online. 8 got very sick having diarrhea, stomach cramps and headaches. i didn't know this as the source my illness. that had stopped when I was using a different brand of rice. I buy different brands of rice then 2 weeks later I cooked basmati again this time I only ate it with fresh baked salmon. the diarrhea, stomach cramps and headaches came back that I recalled was exactly the same as the last time I had basmati rice. so now I am returning this bag so Sam's can check if this rice I got is real basmati or not and what kind of chemicals in it seems very toxic. I am not sure what long term effects it would have in me I hope none. the rice once cooked would turn into very porous and light with a very strong odor. possibly a fake rice. I have eaten all kinds of rice some store brand names without any problems.

bland and boring

this company has consistency problems. a 20lbs nov'2019 packed sack from cost co had zero fragrance, lacked hint of almond husk flavor and a starchy chew. my guess is this batch (left) was domestic usa grown and not actually imported from india where the authentic (right) stuff is grown. don't get me wrong, the rice i got was fresh and good quality, but if you are looking for real basmati, i would not trust this brand anymore.

Very, super delicious rice!

I bought basmati rice because my store was out of jasmine rice . The same day I bought it I made a real Mexican rice recipe , I didn’t mentioned anything but my husband said what did you put in this rice it’s so delicious. I didn’t put any other ingredient the only different thing was the rice . I am so happy my store was out of jasmine rice plus the bag where it comes is so cute. People: y’all should try different foods !

Best Rice

If you don't like rice, it probably because you never tried Royal Basmati. It makes the best, fluffiest rice EVERY time. Royal Basmati puts other rice to shame. The rice is a true long-grain and always very white. 20 pound bag lasts a long time, and comes with a plastic storage bag inside the zippered burlap bag to keep it fresh. This is the rice is prefer above all others and highly recommend you give it a try.

Amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love Royal White Basmati Rice in our house. I use it to make all sorts of things from sweet to savory. We made a delicious cinnamon rice pudding that the kids devoured. In this picture you see I’ve used it for red rice. It’s great in dolma (stuffed grape leaves) and really anything you need. Tastes great and cooks up really nicely. Highly recommend!
