Gobinda Bhog - Raw

This traditional aromatic rice variety has a history of over 300 years; The Geographical Indications Registry (GIR) has granted Geographical Indication (GI) status to Gobinda Bhog, a speciality from Burdaman district of West Bengal. It is a short grain rice, with a buttery flavor which works well as a table rice. It is categorised as a ‘Khaas Dhan’ or ‘Special Grain’, because it is offered as prasad to Lord Krishna during the Janmashtami celebrations.

Conserved and Cultivated by Swami Dayananda Farms, Manjakkudi

Native to West Bengal.

It is recommended to store rice in a cool, dry area. If it needs to be preserved for a long period, say over a month or more, dried neem leaves can be added into the pack/box. It is better to avoid storing in humid areas as this would cause pests to form faster. Since our heritage rice is purely organic, the husk is sweeter, which in turn could invite pests if not stored as suggested above.
