                     What is Premium Basmati Rice of 
India? Origin, Aging Process, and What 
Sets It Apart?
Ever made biryani, only to get mushy and sticky grains? 
We’ve all been there. The right grain makes all the difference; 
that is the reason we have premium basmati rice.
Today, we’re stripping away the layers to discover its rich 
origin, traditional aging process, and what really makes it 
stand out on the dinner tables.
Origin and Cultural Heritage
Premium quality basmati rice is not just a mere grain; it is an 
authentic culinary tradition. The crop is unique and can be grown 
only in a particular soil and climate type; it comes from the snow-
fed foothills of the Himalayan range in the fertile region. More than 
65% of the world’s basmati is grown here, with the distinctively 
nutty smell and long, narrow grains thought to be caused by the 
mineral-rich runoff from the soil.
At Kuber Agro, we meticulously select the rice that is grown from 
these traditional belts and thus maintain absolute purity of the rice 
at Kuber Agro, the proud parent company behind Oscar Basmati 
Rice.
The process by which premium basmati 
rice is transformed
Step 1: Accurate milling and sorting
Here in Kuber Agro, we use modern technology and tools to finely and 
precisely hand-shell and polish our premium basmati rice grains.
Step 2: Cultivation and harvesting
The crops are cultivated through mineral-rich water flowing from the 
hills of the Himalayas, which is nurtured by the farmers.
Step 3: The Natural Aging Process
Premium quality basmati rice is aged for a minimum of 12-24 months 
before being sold to the consumers, whereas standard rice is sold 
directly on the store shelves. 
Quality Identification
• Aged Perfection: Naturally aged to provide more flavor.
• Natural Aroma: Any natural scent is untouched and no 
artificial flavor is installed.
• Long Grain: Has long length, expanding during the cooking 
but staying intact.
• Non-Sticky Separation: Grains won’t turn sticky and 
smuggled.
Expert Tip: Don’t cook premium basmati rice on high heat 
initially. To get the maximum length and fluffy texture from the 
grains, plunge them in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking.
