Tamilnadu
Thangam Champa gets its name from the grain which is golden in color, as Thangam in Tamil refers to Gold, and Champa is the season in which this variety is traditionally cultivated.
Unlike other native Tamil Nadu varieties, Thangam Champa is a bold, long grain. It takes 165 days to mature and the paddy grows to an average height of 130 cms. With high mineral and nutritional values, and great taste, Thangam Champa is used for all family meals. This pairs very well with coconut curries and gravies and is often reserved for preparations like pulav and biryani.
