Nanatsuboshi Japanese Rice from Hokkaido 5kg

Hokkaido Nanatsuboshi Rice is a highly regarded short-grain rice from Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido, known for its ideal growing climate and pure water. Its name, “Nanatsuboshi” (Seven Stars), reflects its perfect balance of seven qualities: taste, glossiness, stickiness, softness, aroma, whiteness, and overall harmony. With a mild sweetness and soft yet slightly firm texture, this rice offers versatility across many dishes—whether steamed, shaped into onigiri (rice ball), served with sushi, or paired with Japanese curry. Its light, clean flavour and beautiful appearance make it a favourite in both home kitchens and professional restaurants. Carefully selected by the WASO team, including Executive Chef Hideki Hiwatashi, this rice is directly imported to ensure both premium quality and excellent value. This affordable price is made possible by WASO’s direct import—not a compromise in quality.
