The foundation of exceptional sushi is, without a doubt, the rice. At Intershell we offer two of the most respected names in short-grain Japonica rice: Kinfuji and Matsuri.  

Both Kinfuji and Matsuri deliver an authentic Japanese experience because they use time-honored Japanese cultivars and meticulous milling techniques. The grain itself is typically California-Grown, which is a sign of excellence in the short-grain rice market outside of Japan. This heritage and local cultivation ensure you receive an incredibly fresh, premium product with the perfect texture for sushi every single time.

Both are universally recognized as top-tier sushi rice brands, cultivated and milled to deliver the essential qualities of authentic shari (seasoned sushi rice): perfect cohesion, a tender bite, and a delicate sweetness. While both brands deliver the quality and stickiness required for professional-grade sushi, they offer subtly different experiences, allowing you to fine-tune your final product.

If your goal is consistency, perfect binding, and a rice that lets your fresh seafood shine, choose Kinfuji. If you seek the luxurious texture, rich sweetness, and celebrated aroma of the famous Koshihikari varietal, select Matsuri.
