Kohinoor Gold Extra Long Basmati Rice

Richly Aromatic Extra-Long Basmati Rice with a Softer Bite

Kohinoor Gold Extra Long Basmati Rice is also known as ‘XL‘ due to its impressive average grain length (AGL) of 8.30 mm. It delivers an elegant presentation on every plate. When cooked, each grain elongates beautifully, remains separate and non-sticky, and resists breaking. Along with its exceptional grain length, it offers exquisite flavour and a rich aroma.

The careful ageing process enhances the rice’s naturally sweet aroma, flavour, and grain elongation, creating a premium dining experience whether served with comforting everyday meals, biryani, or pulao. Above all, we maintain consistently high quality to deliver the signature gourmet taste that defines Kohinoor basmati rice.

One of India’s finest basmati rice varieties, Kohinoor Gold Extra Long Basmati Rice is cultivated in the fertile foothills of the Himalayas. This contributes to its distinctive quality, light texture, and enjoyable eating experience.

The grains are carefully selected using a scientific procurement process to ensure only the finest quality is chosen. Kohinoor is committed to delivering richly textured, aromatic rice, and we continue to uphold that promise.
