Great quality short grain rice. It cooks up soft, slightly sticky, and glossy — perfect for sushi or everyday meals. The texture is consistent and it absorbs sauces well without becoming mushy. Reliable and good value for the quality. I would buy it again.

sunrices short grain rice is Japanese sushi rice, they are softer and chewy, I like the mouth feel. This 5 kg bag can last for a while for 2 people. This kind of rice needs to ass more water when cooking, compare to long grain rice and other kinds of rices.

Sunrice is the common brand of rice. This time try the Hinata Short Grain rice, Japanese pearl rice. It is kinda round and like a pearl rice. I like that sticky and taste good.

SunRice's Hinata Short Grain Rice is a staple for anyone looking to create authentic Japanese-style dishes at home. Sourced from Vietnam, this rice is specifically cultivated to replicate the qualities of traditional Japanese rice varieties. The flavor of SunRice Hinata is subtle yet distinct. It possesses a delicate, natural sweetness and a clean, almost nutty profile that makes it incredibly versatile. The taste is not overpowering, which allows it to complement a wide range of ingredients, from savory curries and stir-fries to delicate grilled fish. It provides a comforting and neutral base that elevates the other components of a meal rather than competing with them
