Khushboo Extra Long Traditional Basmati Rice 5kg – Aged Indian Basmati
There is basmati – and then there is Khushboo Extra Long Traditional Basmati. Sourced directly from the fertile plains of India and aged to perfection, Khushboo delivers an authentic basmati experience that is increasingly hard to find: extra-long grains that elongate even further during cooking, a deep floral aroma that fills the room, and a clean, light finish that makes every bite memorable.
The word Khushboo (خوشبو) means “fragrance” in Urdu and Persian – and this rice lives up to its name. It is the fragrance of tradition, of slow-aged grain, of cooking done right.

Why Aged Basmati is Superior
Ageing is the secret behind the world’s best basmati. After harvest, Khushboo rice is stored and aged under controlled conditions. This process:
- Reduces moisture content – grains cook drier and more separate
- Intensifies the natural aroma – the longer the age, the deeper the fragrance
- Firms the grain – no mushiness, even when cooked in large batches
- Enhances elongation – extra-long grains grow even longer in the pot
How to Cook Khushboo Extra Long Basmati
Rinse 2–3 times until water runs clear. Soak for 20–30 minutes to allow the aged grain to rehydrate. Cook with a 1:1.5 ratio of rice to water. Bring to a boil, reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 12–15 minutes. Rest 5–10 minutes before fluffing. The result: long, separate, fragrant grains – every time.
