The brand is available in two versions: the original loose Basmati and also Tilda Steamed Basmati, which won the Grocer branded Excellence Awards in 2008. Tilda has recently revealed its new packaging, which illustrates Tilda Basmati's paddy-to-plate story, while unifying the dry product with the Ready-To-Heat variants.

We are delighted that consumers voted for our product to be the best of its category since we go through a meticulous process from sourcing and purity testing to removing broken grains.
