Reiwa 7 Harvested Rice, Milled, Nagano Prefecture Grown, Koshihikari A, First Grade, 10kg

We are offering polished rice from Nagano Prefecture, Koshihikari A Grade 1, for the Reiwa 7 harvest year.

?Reason for Discount!
Although we had no plans to sell this year's harvest, our partner rice shop went out of business, leaving us with a surplus of rice awaiting shipment.
Therefore, we have decided to sell it urgently on Mercari.

?Nagano Prefecture Koshihikari A Grade 1 Rice.
The biggest difference between A and B is the protein content, which affects the taste of the rice.
In agricultural product inspections, Grade 1 rice with a brown rice protein content of approximately 6.4% or less is classified as A, and above that is classified as B.
The lower the protein content, the higher the taste quality, resulting in rice that is sticky, sweet, and of high quality when cooked.

?Rice Paddy Water Source
With the Northern Alps towering majestically, the mountains store abundant snowmelt water, which flows into the Kashima River (a first-class river) originating from these Northern Alps. This pure water is used for cultivation.
Unlike using reservoir ponds, the water here is so cold that immersing your hands for even 10 seconds during the spring puddling and rice planting seasons will numb your fingers.
The taste of rice is determined by the freshness and coldness of the water.

?Pest and Weed Control
This region has a dry and refreshing climate with significant temperature differences between day and night, resulting in very few pest and disease outbreaks. Therefore, no fungicides or insecticides are used after planting.

?Climate and Environment
Located on flat land at an altitude of 600m to 650m, this area receives ample sunlight and has large diurnal temperature variations. This suppresses excessive metabolism in the rice plants, allowing them to store plenty of starch, which is the deliciousness of rice produced through photosynthesis.
It can be said that in regions where the summer night temperature does not drop below 18°C, rice plants cannot rest and therefore cannot store starch.
Conversely, if it is too cold, cold damage will prevent healthy rice plants from growing.

?For Safety and Security
The rice passes through a stone remover, color sorter, polisher, another stone remover, and a sifter.
