Ideal for sushi, rice balls, and rice bowls, this 11 lb. pack delivers authentic flavor and superior quality for discerning home chefs. ## Description The expansive and fertile Sendai Plain, nourished by the rich flow of rivers from the Ou Mountains that stretch across the western part of Miyagi Prefecture. During the summer, it is blessed with ample sunlight but does not experience extreme high temperatures, and with moderate temperature differences between day and night, rice plants mature slowly and steadily, resulting in delicious rice. Miyagi's Hitomebore inherits the characteristics of its parent, Koshihikari, with a well-balanced combination of stickiness, luster, flavor, sweetness, and aroma, making it an all-round rice that pairs well with various dishes. Specially cultivated rice is rice grown with less than 50% of the usual amount of pesticides and chemical fertilizers used in conventional agriculture, and is properly managed. It is delicious rice that is safe and secure for both people and the environment. ## Features - Special cultivation rice from Miyagi prefecture. - A delightful balance of stickiness, shine, flavor, sweetness, and fragrance. - Reduced pesticide and chemical fertilizer usage by 50%. - Meticulously cultivated using eco-conscious methods for superior quality. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B0D3TKKFFP | | Best Sellers Rank | #40 in Dried White Rice | | Manufacturer | Shinmei USA | | Package Dimensions | 15.35 x 10.83 x 3.58 inches; 11 Pounds | | Units | 176.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Shinmei Sanchi Gensen - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Item Weight:** 11 Pounds - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 176.0 Ounce ## Images ![Shinmei Sanchi Gensen HITOMEBORE, Japanese Short Grain White Rice, 100% Grown in Miyagi, Japan for SUSHI, RICE BALL, RICE BOWL (11 lb.) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71am5n6tgvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delicious *by on Reviewed in the United States November 22, 2025* One think people might hesitate to purchase this, probably a price.
