LOTUS FOODS: Rice Volcano Brown and Red Heirloom Rices, 15 oz

LOTUS FOODS: RICE VOLCANO BROWN AND RED HEIRLOOM RICES (15.000 OZ) Lotus Foods Organic Volcano Rice - 15 oz. (426g) Lotus Foods Organic Volcano Rice is a mineral and antioxidant-packed blend of traditional aromatic West Java rices grown on volcanic soils rich in magnesium, manganese and zinc - essential minerals so often lacking in modern diets. A colorful blend of nutrient-dense Sintanur brown rice, whole grain red rice and lightly milled red rice that is reputed to restore vitality due to its high mineral, fiber and antioxidant content, it's no wonder the Javanese favor these healthy rices for their satisfying wholesome flavor. Lotus Foods is told that Sintanur, with a hint of vanilla-like Pandan aroma, is such a favorite with Javanese that they take it along when visiting other islands. Lotus Foods Organic Volcano Rice can transform any rice dish into a more flavorful and nutritious meal. Lotus Foods Organic Volcano Rice is grown by a cooperative of Tasikmalaya family farmers using the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). With SRI they are able to increase their production and conserve their local rice biodiversity using less water, seed, land and no agrochemicals. The cooperative is one of the first in Indonesia to get the rice it produces certified as both organic and fair trade. In fact, it is the first rice to be imported to the US that qualifies for labeling as "Fair for Life." The standards for this certification, set by IMO [Institute for Marketecology], are perhaps the most stringent in the industry encompassing many social and environmental criteria as well the price premiums most people associate with fair trade. Due in large part to the benefits of the SRI growing methodology, the production and processing of Lotus Foods Organic Volcano Rice surpasses the minimum required standards of IMO
