H2: What is Brown Rice Syrup?

Brown rice syrup, sometimes called brown rice malt syrup, is produced through enzyme‑driven saccharification of organic brown rice starch. This process yields a thick, dark syrup rich in maltose, maltotriose, and rice dextrins—with only trace glucose and fructose. The end result is a naturally sweet liquid with a subtle caramel aroma and a mild nutty taste.
