This product is very good and gave me the same taste and flavour back home. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Different and tasty alternative but expensive *by H***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 May 2021* I eat a lot of rice, but I really can’t claim to be an expert, however, my wife and I seem to be in general agreement about this Indian aromatic short grain.It is an alternative to Jasmine or Basmati, I would say because of its small grains it has a slightly different nutty texture to the others.A picture is attached to try and show the different look between this rice (bottom) and Basmati (top).It tastes nice and has a slight aromatic flavour, but nowhere near as distinct as Jasmine rice, but it does have that slight stickiness.There are no cooking instructions on the packet but please ignore the first instructions on the product page about cooking it in warm water for 10 minutes. It cooks like Basmati, just add it to boiling water, stir then cook for 10-12 minutes, drain and use.We have tried it with both curries and stir-fries and it worked well.It has a prestigious Great taste 2020 award so more knowledgeable people than me rate this.For me, this is a tasty rice, but I do not think I would pay the premium price often, more on a special occasion or just for a change. However, my wife who is gluten-free and is therefore far more limited in her choice of grains is more taken with it and would have it a little more often as a substitute for Couscous or Bulgar Wheat for instance. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Expensive *by B***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 April 2021* Considering the price of this rice, I was expecting something quite special, sadly my expectations were not realised. This rice is fine as rice goes, but the flavour is rather bland. It is easy and quick to cook (in boiling water, not warm water as the Amazon page states), and the result is okay, with the rice grains being very small compared to other types of rice. However, I can see nothing here to warrant the premium price. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/133645310-banyantree-foods-aromatic-short-grain-easy-cook-kaima-biryani-rice](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/133645310-banyantree-foods-aromatic-short-grain-easy-cook-kaima-biryani-rice) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
