Thuya Mali

Thuya Mali is a rare and fragrant traditional rice variety from Tamil Nadu, cherished for its delicate aroma, fine texture, and natural sweetness. The name “Thuya Mali” translates to “Sacred Jasmine,” reflecting its pleasant fragrance when cooked. Traditionally cultivated without chemicals, this heritage grain is rich in carbohydrates, moderate in fiber, and contains essential minerals like iron and magnesium. Its soft, fluffy grains make it ideal for biryanis, pulao, festive meals, and special occasions. Thuya Mali is naturally gluten-free and easily digestible, making it suitable for all age groups, including children and the elderly. Its moderate glycemic index supports balanced blood sugar levels. As a minimally processed rice, it retains more nutrients than fully polished varieties, offering both taste and health in every serving. Consuming Thuya Mali not only satisfies the palate but also preserves an age-old legacy of fragrant, wholesome South Indian rice cultivation.
