Heritage rice,
sourced direct
from the field.
22 varieties across five families. Naturally aged, hand-sorted, and traceable to the farm that grew them. Wholesale and retail from Manapparai.
Heritage grains grown in Tamil Nadu for generations - hardier, slower to cook, and milled with the bran left on rather than polished away. Includes the reds and blacks that carry the most tradition.
Steamed before milling, which firms the grain and suits idli, dosa batter and daily cooking that needs to hold up in the heat.
Long-grain aromatic rice, carried alongside the heritage catalogue for customers who ask for it by name.

Ask about availabilityFrequently asked
What's your minimum order?
There's no fixed minimum for retail - a single bag is fine. For wholesale, message us with the variety and quantity and we'll confirm what works.
Do you deliver, and how far?
We deliver across Manapparai and the wider Tiruchirappalli district. Message us your location on WhatsApp and we'll confirm.
How do I know which variety I need?
Tell us what you're cooking - biryani, everyday meals, payasam - and we'll point you to the right variety from the index.
What does "naturally aged" mean?
Rice is rested after milling rather than sold immediately, which firms the grain and improves how it cooks. Ageing time varies by variety.
Can restaurants set up a monthly standing order?
Yes - message us on WhatsApp with your kitchen's usual varieties and volumes and we'll set up a recurring supply.
Do you supply outside Manapparai and Trichy?
For bulk and distributor orders, yes - message us with the destination and volume to confirm.
How are rates decided?
Rice rates move with the harvest and season. Message us for today's price on any variety - we reply the same day.
Can I see and handle the grain before buying?
Yes - visit the shop at Bharathiyaar Nagar, Manapparai, and see the grain before you buy.
