The comprehensive machinery available provides quick turnaround for the padi collected, meaning that rice from the mill will be sent to their customers quickly and efficiently.

Fragrant Rice
In the early 90s, Jasmine introduced Sunwhite – the first AAA quality fragrant rice – into the Malaysian market. It was an instant hit and even now is highly regarded by consumers due to its purity, taste, and fragrance.

Sunwhite is of the “Homali” rice variety and is only harvested once every year, between October and March. Apart from being used widely in restaurants, homes, it is also famously suited to one of Malaysia’s favourite food, a rice recipe that’s coupled with chicken. Many chicken rice ‘entrepreneurs’ have attested to Sunwhite’s ‘special’ taste and texture, making this rice a favourite choice.

White Rice
White rice is rice which has had the husk removed and then polished. Jasmine supplies both local and imported varieties of white rich to Malaysian consumers. Imported white rice products are marked by a blue band, while local white rice is marked with a purple band. Local white rice is further divided into the 5, 10, and 15 percent broken-rice categories to represent the quality and flavor of the rice.

Specialty Rice
Jasmine’s range of basmathi are highly sought by food connoiseurs for their taste and special features such as extra long lengths, fluffiness and aroma. These premium rice products are imported from basmathi’s place of origin in Punjab, India. Basmathi rice has a distinctive aroma and taste, which is why it is also known as “the Fragrant One” or the “Prince of Rice”.
