Weight: 1kg

Etem Black Rice is a fragrant, black medium grain cultivated traditionally by the indigenous Lun Bawang tribe of the Borneo Highlands. The rice is grown in a cool, pure, and unpolluted environment (1000m above sea level) and the rice fields are irrigated by pristine clear mountain water. The black-purple colour of the rice comes naturally from a flavonoid known as anthocyanin, which is known to be high in antioxidants, nutrients and can reduce the level of free radicals in the body system. The rice is aromatic with a mild nutty flavour and chewy texture when cooked.
