Organic Chakhao Black Rice is a unique, aromatic, and nutrient-rich variety of black rice native to Manipur, India. The word Chakhao means "delicious rice" in the local Meitei language. This rice is known for its deep purple-black color, which comes from its high anthocyanin content (a powerful antioxidant). It has a slightly nutty flavor, a chewy texture, and turns dark purple when cooked. Traditionally, Chakhao Black Rice is used in special dishes, including kheer (rice pudding) and other Manipuri delicacies.
