I really enjoy this brand of rice. It is a huge bag that lasts my family of 6 about three months. We eat a lot of rice so this is very handy. I love the texture and flavor of this rice. It's the best.

Perfect Rice

Weight is a little over the stated weight on bag. No debris or non-rice contents - clean rice. Great price. I put up 4 pound bags with vacuum seal machine to store for use now and later.

These are long, aromatic rice. A go to with your every dish. I use it for every day for my meals whether it is with Beans, with lentils and even they are long enough to use it for your Chicken / mutton biryani. Loved it!

Best Basmati ever

Basmati rice is the only rice I use anymore. My son worked in a few restaurants and taught me the trick to having fluffy rice every time is to soak this for about an hour before cooking and rinse three times. This will reduce cooking time and the amount of liquid needed. You can use any stock as the liquid and I always toss in a couple of hot peppers. It comes out perfect every time.

Not the same. Not sure if it's genuine Basmati

Bought a bag in the Spring, it was good basmati. Ordered another bag and it was very obviously plain white long rice. Looked, cooked, and tasted totally different and bland. It was bland and overly dry. Did some research online and many others have had the same issue lately. Will not be buying ever again.

Perfectly fluffy great quality

Authentic Royal Basmati Rice has become a staple in our house. The grains cook up long, fluffy, and perfectly separated every time, and the aroma is exactly what you want from real basmati. It’s super easy to make, works beautifully for everyday meals like chicken and rice bowls, and the 20 lb bag lasts a long time, which makes it an amazing value. Consistent, flavorful, and reliable definitely my go-to basmati rice!

taste best !!

Basmati rice has a wonderful aroma and long, fluffy grains that cook perfectly every time. It has a light, non-sticky texture and a delicate flavor that pairs well with curries, biryani, and everyday meals. Overall, it’s a high-quality rice that adds great taste and elegance to any dish.

Maybe my New Favorite or Co-favorite?

I have been eating Jasmine rice for over 30 years. My Sam’s was temporarily out of Jasmine rice and I had been wanting to try Basmati rice so I got a sack. It is so good especially If you like rice that doesn’t stick together. It makes great fried rice. Wash it very thoroughly to get the starch out. I use a rice cooker and use less water than they call for. I use 1-3/4 cups water to 1-cup rice.

Bad smell

We have been eating Royal Basmati rice for more than three years. Recently, I noticed a change in the quality of the rice. When I cooked it, the rice had a strange, unpleasant smell, almost like something was slightly rotten, and the taste was not what we are used to. It seems the quality has been declining. I will not be buying this brand again.
