## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this grown in Japan or California?**
A: In Japanese, it says it is grown in Sacramento, California. Koshihikari is a varietal that is synonymous with Niigata prefecture, but it’s grown in a lot of different places. In my personal view there are different grades of US-grown koshihikari and this is a mid-level brand. 

A Japanese one is gonna be 2-3x the price of a CA koshihikari. That premium is too steep, in my view.

**Q: How many cups of rice can I get out of this bag (4.4 LB/2 kg)?**
A: approximately 8 to 10 cups of uncooked rice, or 24 to 30 cups of cooked rice. Depending on how soft or firm you cook your rice, and if you use a rice cooker or not.

**Q: What variety of rice?  I'm looking for Japonica.**
A: It is japonica short grain which is one of two major rices grown and used in Asia. The 2nd is indica which is a medium grain and is usually had a dingy color to it.

**Q: So is this the new crop or old crop?**
A: I would suppose that depends on when you actually make your purchase. I've bought the rice from the same vendor and each time the harvest/manufacturer date was within 6 months of my purchase.  At any rate, I stand by my review that this is the best, affordable sushi grade rice that is readily available
