Bomba rice—the heart of our paella 🇪🇸

Sourced directly from Spain, this premium short-grain rice is grown in the Valencia region and is a staple of traditional Spanish paella.

Known for its ability to absorb up to three times its volume in liquid, it takes on deep flavor while keeping a firm, separate grain—giving our paella its signature texture.

Try it for yourself at Buena Vida.
