Rico Reserve reeds are the result of more than 75 years of reed-making expertise. Reserve reeds are made exclusively from lower-internode cane. Only the lower sections of each cane pole are selected - a technique Rico has pioneered that yields the highest density cane available. Less than five percent of our cane qualifies for Reserve reeds. Using French cutting techniques, the profile on all Rico Reserve reeds is cut with precision natural diamond blades to ensure dimensional accuracy and consistency of finish.
