Short-grain rice, also known as paella rice, is the most common type in Spain. Selected from varieties such as bahia and senia, this short and rounded rice is ideal for cooking perfect paella and rice dishes. Its ability to absorb more flavors makes it the 'king rice' for such dishes. Carefully prepared by Hijos de Vicente Catala Peiro, a Valencian family business and one of the oldest in its sector since the late 19th century.

Great paella rice with good bite. I usually buy Bomba rice from the supermarket but this held its shape better and was yummy! Cool sack packaging too.

Makes your paella much more tasty. Comes in a lovely bag too - great for a gift. You could make up your own hampers for gifts. We also bought various sausages and cheese from Basco to compliment the dish. Also, the delivery was fast and well packaged with mini sealed ice strips to keep the food fresh. I bought this as part of a selection of meats and cheeses for my husbands birthday and he absolutely loved it. We would both highly recommend Basco for their excellent service.
