Coop. Campo Virgen Esperanza

Grown on the Moorish-built river terraces of Calasparra, an inland village in Murcia, this rice is produced under the prestigious Arroz de Calasparra DOP – Spain's first protected designation of origin for rice. The fields are irrigated by the fast-flowing, mineral-rich waters of the River Segura, which contribute to the exceptional quality of the crop. This Balilla × Sollana variety is particularly well suited to traditional arroz al horno (oven-baked rice) and arroz caldoso (soupy rice) dishes, delivering excellent texture across both styles of cooking. Brindisa sources this rice from the Co-operativa del Campo Virgen de la Esperanza, a respected producer that cultivates several traditional rice varieties in the region.
