Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question : How long has this rice been aged?
    Answer : 2 Years minimum for ALL Acquerello rice. FYI: The company also carries the 7 Year aged special.
  • Question : What is the unopened shelf life?
    Answer : Unopened shelf like should be up to 15 month
  • Question : Is the bag supposed to be really vacuum sealed / “compressed and hard”? Mine arrived loose with air inside but I don’t see any hopes or rips.
    Answer : Mine was vacuum sealed
  • Question : Is this product gluten-free?
    Answer : All rice is gluten-free
  • Question : Is the bag supposed to be really vacuum sealed / “compressed and hard”? Mine arrived loose with air inside but I don’t see any holes or rips.
    Answer : It should be air tight and hard as a brick. I would return it.
  • Question : Is this product available unbleached?
    Answer : yes, it is unbleached
  • Question : It is like a solid brick. How do you take the rice apart to take out a small amount?
    Answer : It's true that the rice comes in the form of a solid brick - and it wouldn't be practical to take out small amounts. I opened the package, took out several pounds of rice to store in a medium sized jar, and left the rest in the original package. It stayed fresh this way, and I refill the jar whenever the supply runs low. Taking daily amounts from the original brick would be a clumsy operation with some spillage likely.
  • Question : How long can be kept on a sealed container ?
    Answer : I honestly couldn’t tell you; the longest we’ve had it around is six months or so. In a ‘sealed’ container in a cool, dry place, I'd think a year at least. You will notice that Acquerello sells ‘aged’ riso for a premium price, so I wouldn’t think it is likely to degrade after a year or so of proper storage.

Acquerello White Editorial Review

Acquerello rice is a highly-praised choice by customers for the perfect base for risotto. In the FAQs, the product has a shelf life of up to 15 months if unopened and stored properly, while any sealed containers will last for at least a year. The rice comes in the form of a solid brick, so it would not be practical to use it daily. The package must be opened to transfer rice to another container. The rice has a gluten-free label, and the product is available unbleached. In the reviews, customers who have used the product for years highly recommend it, praising its texture and flavor—just as good (if not better) as the Carnaroli rice that can only be found in Italy. However, some customers have received a package that has an expired shelf life or packed poorly.

Pros

  • Long shelf life
  • Gluten-free
  • Available unbleached
  • Highly praised for texture and flavor
  • Comparable to Carnaroli rice that can only be found in Italy

Cons

  • Inconsistent packaging and delivery
