Thanks** A: Not especially- however, my Japanese father always said that even within one brand, the rice varies according to season: when the crop has been recently harvested, the taste is sweeter than when it has been stored awhile. Also, be careful: sushi rice is different from ordinary and Nishiki produces both. **Q: has this rice been processed to be no-wash (musenmai)?** A: In the old days, you had to wash rice to clean it of impurities; nowadays, for this and other good quality rice, the cleaning is only necessary to improve taste and texture. So you can skip the washing but it won’t taste as nice. Doesn’t take more than a minute to wash. Just put raw rice in cooking pot and run cold water over while tilting and holding edge of your hand over lower edge of pot to let water flow out, keep rice in. Do this until water runs clearish. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nishiki Premium Grade Rice (Medium Grain) 5kg - Kikkoman Soy Sauce, 1 Litre, Naturally Brewed - Kewpie Mayonnaise 500 g (Pack of 2) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/289833474-nishiki-premium-grade-rice-medium-grain-5kg](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/289833474-nishiki-premium-grade-rice-medium-grain-5kg) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-10-12*
