Thai Hom Mali rice is considered one of the finest rices in the world, repeatedly named "World's Best Rice" at the World Rice Conference. Its slightly sticky texture, natural pandan-like floral aroma and long translucent grains make it the reference for Asian grocery stores and Thai restaurants across Europe. Martigane distributes the Siam Grains range — three references covering every channel.

Thai rice: between tradition and world excellence

Thailand has been among the world's leading rice exporters for decades, and its signature product is Hom Mali rice (varieties KDML105 and RD15). It is grown mainly in the north-east of the country, in the Isaan region, on poor sandy-clay soils that concentrate the grain's natural aromatics. The secret lies in its natural content of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline — the same aromatic compound found in pandan leaves — which is what produces the characteristic floral scent released during cooking.

🏆 Hom Mali: named world's best rice several times over

Thai Hom Mali has taken the "World's Best Rice" title at the World Rice Conference on multiple occasions since 2009. That recognition explains both the price premium the grain commands on European and Asian markets, and the loyalty of consumers of Asian origin who will not substitute it for anything else.

The three Siam Grains references at Martigane

Thai Hom Mali 100% — New Crop 2026

The premium reference of the range. New Crop designates rice from the current harvest campaign (2025-2026): the freshest grain available, with optimal monthsture content, aromatics at peak intensity, and a lighter, airier texture after cooking than older crops. The 100% Hom Mali designation guarantees there is no blending with less aromatic varieties.

Available formats: 1 kg × 24, 1 kg × 12, 5 kg and 10 kg. The 1 kg × 24 works best on Asian grocery shelves; 5 kg and 10 kg suit restaurants and bulk resale.

Thai Hom Mali 100% — Crop 2025

The 2025 harvest, slightly older than the New Crop. Rice that has aged a few months cooks to a firmer texture, which many Asian chefs prefer for wok dishes where the grains must stay separate. It usually prices below the New Crop, making it strong value for Asian catering operations.

Available formats: 1 kg × 24, 1 kg × 12, 5 kg and 10 kg.

Thai Jasmine rice (Pathumthani) — New Crop

Jasmine rice from Pathumthani province is a distinct variety from Hom Mali: slightly shorter grains, a stickier texture once cooked, and a less intense but softer, more neutral aroma. It is particularly valued for rice puddings, Asian desserts such as sticky rice, and as an accompaniment to sauce-based dishes where a more absorbent grain is preferable.

Available formats: 1 kg × 24, 1 kg × 12, 5 kg and 10 kg.
