    It's Durian Season here in Malaysia so time for me to sample what's on offer this year. If you are not a durian lover then watch as I explain how you can really enjoy this 'Fruit'
    In this video I tried the Musang King Durian, D24 Durian and Pilau Penang Odang Durian.
    I was told the the quality of the Black Thorn Durian was not so good, so I'll save that for another day 👍 🇲🇾

    Hi Steve, Michelle here. My hubby bought me mustang king a couple of weeks ago. I think it was a D 24 but it wasn’t as nice as the Sarawak durian. It’s flavour is so much stronger. This is my favourite fruit. I always say it tastes like sweetened onion. With a creamy custard. Enjoy both of you!

    For those who wanted to pack durian to take home, if you are in those Petaling Jaya SS2 Durian store, most of them do have packing services, be it take home or on flight to oversea.

    Hi! Steve, I like Musang King but D24 is my all-time favorite! The taste hits the spot every time😄. D24 used to be the king before Musang King came about. Musang king has a much stronger taste compared with the rest and durian experts advise to eat it last so that it will not overpower the taste of other durian.

    The thing with durians is that you need to take 2 or 3 variants to really let the diff traits of each durian stands out. So do take black thorn with another durian to relatively enjoy the difference and the individuality. Also freshness esp straight off from tree do emit extra quality like liquorish alkohol taste for example

    Penang has 4 specialty durian which is loved by the locals a lot. The one you mentioned cheaper durian the name is Red Prawn (locals call it ang heh, reason being is the fruit is orangy in color, it is very creamy and if the tree is old it gets much bitter tinge than sweet). There are other 3 more which are Cuppling (local calls it kapri, white in color. Shape is flat and round.), then there is Green Skin and also Hor Lor (means gourd - long in shape- sweet and sticky). Try this and give your comments next year if you are around Penang. Durian seasons starts from mid may to early july. Black thorn is originated in Penang as well. Feel free to review your experience in Penang.

    Well, most of nice build store often sell an overprice durians, my suggestion is you need to come over to penang, this is where the heaven, me myself owned 4 musang king tree...and if you wanna go for black thorn, come over to sungai bakap, penang...there the original place where black thorn were planted, and the price is just 35/75/95 per kilos for black thorn, all graded one...for musang king here at sungai bakap is around 35-45 per kilos only....come and visit next year, btw the taste of durian is effected on where the durian is planted and kind of soil...

      Yes well done. Few people seem to realize that the richest, very best durians are kampung durians. However I am talking about a tiny fraction of the total kampung durian haul each year. If you take 100 kampung durians at random, maybe 30% will be horrible, almost inedible, a further 30% will be pleasant but inferior to even the cheapest of the branded ones, a further 30% will be good quality roughly on a par with the branded durians, a further 9% will be excellent - richer, creamier, and especially far more interesting and varied in flavor than even the expensive brands, and finally.... the 1%.. wow, unforgettable. Problem is in order to get to taste this 1% you have to keep buying a heck of a lot of kampung durian until you finally land it. Paying for an expensive grand is an insurance policy. Every single time will be good, since you (usually!) Know what you are getting, yet at the same time you resign yourself to having no chance of the rare jackpot.

    I like D24, Musang King & Black Thorn. These Durians are origin from Pahang state. These durian can easily found in KL or Selangor (during season)… However, few years back during MAHA Agricultural Expo, I tried durian from Penang island; Durian Susu & Durian Daun Hijau. These premium durian tasted so good, milky, creamy and sweet and I must admit that these durian from Penang can easily beat D24 and if it’s not too much even Musang King… The price range way cheaper than Musang King.. I can’t wait for another MAHA Agricultural Expo 2023.

    For those trying durian for the 1st time, prepare yourself mentally. Tell yourself you are about to eat creamy vanilla ice-cream with a big dose of whisky and rum.
    I'll recommend 24D for durian virgins. Once you graduate, go for high quality Black Gold Musang King. It has small seeds and the flesh peels off the seed cleanly. If you like sweeter durian, go for King Red Prawn.

    Best way I can describe durian is if you like strong flavours then it’s for you. Think blue cheese. I would say D24 is fantastic entry level eating. It’s a good utility durian and it’s good value for money. For me my favourite is still musang king. It just has the roundest flavour, not overly bitter or sweet but extremely pungent with creamy flesh akin to a thick custard. Never start with musang king just like you would never start with a Stilton and finish on a Brie.

    I grew up in a rubber and durian plantation in Kajang,Selangor D.E and it was D2 and D24 varieties. That was 30 years ago. I honestly haven't tasted the sour profile in them. Creamy, roasted sweetness ,alcoholic scent/pong and a gradual bitterness are very common. There is a big difference in taste depending on its freshness.Enjoy your durian, Steve.

    Hi steve the penang durian (simply known as red prawn) which are from balik pulau is famous and superior. I find the balik pulau ones taste more complex with the so called alcoholic taste and super creamy, different than the typical red prawns i buy in the klang valley. I had the chance to go to an orchard in balik pulau area in penang and tried a few fresh durians. One tip to tell the freshness is the stem of the fruit is not dry.

But importantly when it comes to durians, it means something like "other" or "miscellaneous" ie all the rest of the durians which are NOT a specific type/grade (such as d24, musang king etc". In other words you don't know what you are going to get until it is opened and it can turn out anywhere from foul to heavenly, the full spectrum
