Product Overview
Pusa Basmati Rice, also known as PB-1121, is a landmark variety developed by the Indian Agricultural Research Institute and widely regarded as the gold standard for premium basmati exports. It delivers the longest cooked grain of any commercial basmati variety - raw grain length of 8.4mm elongates to over 22mm on cooking, with a characteristic pandan-like aroma derived from its high 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) content. Pusa Basmati is the variety of choice for premium retail brands, high-end hotel chains, and fine-dining distributors in Europe, North America, and the Gulf. Amrudhya Harvests sources Pusa Basmati from certified farms in the Karnal and Kurukshetra districts of Haryana - the heartland of Indian basmati cultivation. Every batch is lab-tested for aroma compounds, moisture, and pesticide residues, with full traceability documentation available. This variety commands a premium price and is typically supplied to established importers seeking consistent, high-quality supply for branded retail or institutional catering. Available in elegant retail packaging and bulk trade packs.
