Hokkaido is one of Japan's finest rice-growing regions, blessed with vast fertile land and pure snowmelt water. Nurtured by a cool climate and rich soil, Nanatsuboshi is known for its plump grains, gentle sweetness, and clean, easy-to-eat finish. Once cooked, it has a lustrous shine, and every bite reveals a mellow, well-rounded umami.
Nanatsuboshi is celebrated for its exceptional balance across seven qualities: flavour, whiteness, lustre, stickiness, aroma, softness, and mouthfeel — hence its name, meaning "seven stars." It has long earned the highest "Special A" rating in Japan's rice taste rankings, and is loved for its firm, defined grains and moderate stickiness. It is also a great choice for those who prefer a slightly firmer texture.
Perfect for everyday meals, it also holds its texture well when cold, making it ideal for onigiri, bento boxes, and sushi. Its moderate stickiness pairs beautifully with curry and donburi dishes too.
