Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained through natural crossing of Asian rice with an Italian variety and belongs to the type B long-grain rice category. The grains are characterized by a length-to-width ratio of more than 3, and the variety itself is semi-dwarf.

The rice has a high amylose content, which allows it to maintain its shape well during cooking and provides resistance to overcooking. The aroma includes notes of freshly baked bread, dried fruits, white flowers, and spices, while in its unpolished form, it is complemented by hints of straw and hay.

It is used for boiling in water and steaming, preparing pilaf, stir-frying, salads, arancini, and supplì. The variety is used in scientific research related to the study of resistance to stress conditions, in particular to germination under water deficit.
