Beras Etem

HEIRLOOM Etem Black Rice (Unpolished) is a fragrant, black medium-grain cultivated traditionally by the indigenous Lun Bawang tribe in Borneo Highlands. Cultivated at an elevation of 1000m above sea level, the rice field is irrigated by clean and unpolluted mountain water.

Its signature black-purple colour exists naturally from a flavonoid known as anthocyanin, which is known to be high in antioxidants and nutrients and can reduce free radicals in the body system. It is left unpolished to retain 100% of its nutrients and health values. The rice is aromatic with a mild nutty flavour and chewy texture when cooked.
