We love this rice! It’s so fresh, nutty, and delicious! I’m an organic freak & was concerned with it no longer saying certified organic. I contacted the company & they said they are still committed to the same purity but just could no longer afford the cost of certified organic as a small family farm. They also explained that the only difference now is they use nitrogen as a fertilizer vs manure (which is required for organic but lends to arsenic in the rice). I was completely satisfied with their response & am happy to be restocked with Chico brown rice. I highly recommend!!
The rice is good. Love to support farmers. If it were still organic I would give it 5 stars.
Rice is tasty, having a slightly nutty flavor. It is sticky enough. You don't have to worry about your rice being milled too much.
Shipping was fast and secure.
Thanks Chico Rice!!
I’m sorry that I didn’t get the brown as well as blonde so will be placing another order.
We first tried Chico Rice a few years back and were hooked. Terrific flavor. It works in our favorite recipes, from our dinner bowls and risottos to our soups and sides. We even place bags of Chico Rice in gift totes to welcome new neighbors and for holiday gifts!
I put a cup in my rice cooker. It turned out perfect! Fluffy and tasty. Very nice product!
My toddler is obsessed with this rice. We use broth instead of water and add cilantro and place it in the rice cooker and she eats it all week. It has a nice texture if you're used to brown rice or want to eat healthier this is a great option!
Believe it or not I bought a bag at Home Goods and fell in love with this amazing rice! I don’t think that people taste rice, they just eat it! I am so in love with this rice and the amazing taste of perfection. You can’t mess up cooking this rice it comes out perfect every time. I cook my rice in a rice cooker for that perfect rice every time. How do I explain the taste? Well it’s nutty and you can actually taste the rice. Perfection…100% perfection!
Great customer service and support, reasonable prices for an excellent local product. Chico Rice is the only rice we purchase as well as give out as gifts.
We passed Chico Rice fields on a roadtrip and decided to check it out. Love buying local and these products are outstanding. Our entire family noticed the difference in the flavor immediately.
We’ve been buying this bulk bag blonde rice for 6 years now. It is a superb product. Really good rice at a great price straight from the source. I do wish the organic certification had been maintained or a more thorough explanation provided (I would happily pay substantially more for this same product if organic, the product itself is great). I recommend it to everyone, all the time.
Thanks Chico Rice!
I highly recommend trying this rice, I have five bags of rice in my pantry, and this is my favorite.
Always fresh and delicious
This rice really is outstanding. However, shipping costs are higher than the price of the rice. I would love to make this my go to rice but, until it’s available in my area, the shipping costs prevent me from purchasing again.
I don’t know how they do it, but no other rice compares! The aroma, the texture. So fresh!
our order had 2 brown rice instead of one each white rice, brown rice
dusappounted as we wanted to try both
It took 4 or 5 times for me to get used to the white rice as the flavor is very mild. Now I am learning how to add fruit and nuts to it and it is fantastic. I will definitely keep buying it.
I love the flavor of Chico rice, and I love the ease of purchasing from the company. Superb flavor and texture.
Chewy and fresh like I used to get when I was on the Macrobiotic Diet in the early 70s! Thank you!!
Been buying this rice for a while now because it is hands down the best rice I've had and it's local which is awesome. I love the new resealable bag too. Delicious rice and amazing price!
