This is really good quality and nice taste, although it doesn't retain it's shape well if overcooked unlike the wheat one. It has a strong rice-like flavour that is unique if you're not used to it.

Beautiful taste, where the brown rice flavour is subtle and not overpowering so that the pasta works well in any italian style dish. A very good buy.
