if you have an aldi nearby you can now find hom mali quality
for about the same $1/lbs without having to bulk stock up;

long grain jasmine and "basmati" are pretty interchangeable.

royal lacks the dry chewy starch and nutty fragrance of a real
india grown basmati (despite the authentic looking packaging)
leaving royal as a generic and rather bland rice like product.
i live near jackson heights ny which has an indian grocer on
every avenue, so trust me when i say; royal is NOT basmati.
i've been in indian grocers where a quarter of the store was
a hundred different rice sacks, and none were this brand.

You're correct. For others benefit, if someone prefers a distinct aroma coming off of their rice, I would recommend buying different rice. Even the best Basmati variant is still like a baby to those other aromatic variants.

Not sure about Indians, but for the rest of Asia, this is trash grade rice. Wife made me throw it out after the first cook. I can't much comment, I find all rice tasteless.

She and her friends all much prefer their Imperial Dragon brand rice.
Is that basmati or jasmine rice?

Jasmine. I'm not a rice connoisseur, so I'm not sure what it is that makes one better than another. We've bought Basmati, Jasmine, Millagrosa, US Golden, sticky, etc over the years, with varying degree of success across types.

That is to say, it's not just because it's Basmati that they don't seem to like it.

Rest of Asia? This was about a deal on Basmati Rice in US.
