- I did a Durian Fruit Taste Test to try a variety of Durian in Malaysia. Durian Fruit in Malaysia is known to be the best in the world. My reaction to tasting this Durian Fruit Musang King and Black Thorn surprised me. Is Musang King the BEST DURIAN IN THE WORLD.
I found this place called DKing SS2 here in Kuala Lumpur. I love the sweet and creamy taste they both have - I can see why they are called the King of fruits. They are nutritious, have many health benefits, and each one has a unique texture and flavor. The Durian I had did taste better than the one I had in Thailand but does Malaysia truly have the Best Durians in the World?

Thai durians are plucked half ripe. Of course most fruit farmers do that but durian is the only fruit which is allowed to drop on its own here.
Thai durian vs Malaysian durian are like comparing instant noodle vs Michelin star freshly made pasta. Nothing to compare.
Good! You guys are enjoying and discovering new delicacies. Stay safe!
😋 yum yum
Blackthorn and Musang King are the highest grade durians in the world. Congratulations to you for trying it.
😊
Hurray ! You hv durian taste buds in you. Soon you will hv durian craving which is good. Durian is the king of Malaysian fruits. 🙏😁
I actually crave it already 😁 I just love the smell. I can’t wait to try other varieties. Which is your favorite?
MUSANG King as of now. I hv not tried Blackthorn yet the price is insane 30% to 50% higher than MK. It must be good.
I am indigenous Montagnard Jarai live in America NC I love durian bought durian last year in Florida it’s come from Thailand taste good
Oh my gosh u are so pretty. Welcome to my country
Durian in Malaysia are not plucked like in Thailand.The farmers will only picked the Durian on the ground after it falls down naturally.
Thanks, I see now. I can’t believe there are so many varieties of Durian. I can’t wait to try more
@@CrissyUnfiltered if you have the chance try to look for durian kampung..literally means village durian..its more pungent and gassy..that's the real taste of durian..the one that you ate are what we call sort of hybrid durian..yeah it taste nice to foreigners and the price can fetch as much as 80 ringgit per kilos
@@justrk3980 I prefer durian kampong. There is durian XO.. taste bitter sweet. I dont really like musang king that much. More to kampong n not hybrids... hehehe
@@justrk3980 why would foreigners prefer a more pungent durian? You’re not helpful. Its hard as it is already. You should recommend a milder and sweeter ones instead like red prawn and D13. Its sweeter and more floral
Musang king in hong kong is around RM200 or 30USD per kilogram. sometimes higher
. it's not fresh either. I heard that durian is much expensive ni USA.... SEA durian is the cheapest and highest quality in the world...
I can definitely see it being more expensive but lower quality in the US. I’m glad my first experience of Durian was here in SEA 😊
In Thailand, there are many varieties of durian. Both very sweet, slightly sweet, creamy texture, melts in the mouth, strong smell, not strong smell, must go to the garden Because some species have a high price. In the general market may not be available.
Thank you! I would love to go to the garden and just taste a different variety of the Durian. 😊
Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾! You should try the local durian called dalit or durian merah in Sabah or Sarawak. Cheers ☺️
Wow I have to check out this type. I still want to try red prawn. We were thinking of going to Sarawak but still unsure. Thanks 😊
The correct way to eat durian is the way your friend ate
Thanks, I figured I was eating it wrong
Wow… u tried the 2 best durian.. usually we will buy it home and keep it in the fridge..
Yea I told him I was new to it but heard that Musang King was a highly favored so I definitely wanted to try that one. I’m glad I did
Congrats.....u like durian....we r fren now...I like Musang king...but I don't like the price...
😂😂 Thanks Fren, I didn’t like the price either but it was just part of the experience. Now I know what my go to Durian will be 😂
You can just eat the durian fruit, no need to eat the price....
Durian taste is so complex, one whole fruit can have different tasting flesh from different parts. That's why it is the king of fruit.
Yes, I find the complexity of Durian very interesting. I love it
It's quite common for us Malaysian to eat durian with sticky rice or even hot white rice. My all time favourite is D24. Go look for mangosteen as well!
I still need to try the D24! I love sticky rice in general. Mangosteen is delicious, fell in love with it along with salak when I was in Thailand 😋
udang merah/D18 (red prawn/D18) is quiet good too
I keep hearing good things about the red prawn, I will need to try it eventually
In Malaysia, we also has the sticky rice mixed with durian and coconut milk, it is called nasi durian.
I love it with Sticky Rice! I actually love coconut milk with everything so combining rice and coconut milk is the best. Then adding some Durian 😋 Sooo goood!
@@CrissyUnfiltered it is a heavens food...😆😆😆
At Kelantan, we call it pulut durian
@@norhaslinahasan4912 can’t wait to visit Kelantan 😊
@@CrissyUnfiltered do come to kelantan. there are many kinds of food that you can eat here
Musan King, there is a reason why “King” is in its name :)
All time world's favourite
It’s delicious 😋😊 perfectly creamy and sweet
so in your opinion, which one do you like the most, one of them musangking or black thorn?
I preferred the Musang King. The black thorn was good but the taste was just too strong for me.
@@CrissyUnfiltered ok, I will plant the musangking king durian now in Bali Indonesia
@@kispengustimade5145 😊 that sounds amazing
Musang king best. Haven't tried black thorn. Careful if u have high blood pressure. My usual bp is 128 but after durian it shot up to 175.
No blood pressure issues but this is definitely good info. Thank you! I agree it was yummy. Black thorn took some getting used too but I still prefer the Musang King
you picked the two best varieties, girl! to eat durian, u should pick up the whole fruit/ pulp then suck/ bite( the flesh off) until a the shiny seed is left. picking bits from the husk/ shell like that will mush & mess up everything... btw lol durian is not smelly but fragrant!!! glad y'all liked it! enjoy yr stay 👍
😂 yea I totally realized I was doing it wrong. I learned my lesson. I really enjoyed this Durian and was quite full afterwards. I agree it isn’t smelly the fragrant of Durian is very lovely. I really enjoy and every time I smell it I want more
The one you had in Thailand was Chanee cultivar (strong scent + a little bitter) of which making as desserts (durians and sticky rice). You should Try Mon Thong cultivar (not overripe) next time when you're in Thailand!
I see, thanks! I am definitely adding the Mon Thong onto my list then for when I go back to Thailand.
Durian ice cream is delicious too.
I love Durian Ice cream 😋
Durian smells and tastes good
The proper way of enjoying this fruit is to hold a pip of it and eat it
U can try D15, D24, hor lor or iOi taste also good cheeper than black torn and musang king.
Yea I think the Black Thorn and Musang King was just a way to treat myself. I will stick with the least expensive Durian going forward
Real durian is Kampung Durians. They don't have special brand name like Musang King or Black Thorn. Just called them Kampung Durian. The best durian in the world!
I have to try kampung durian at some point then.. 😋
Simply put, there's no other fruit in this world that even. Come close to Durian. It's called the king of fruits here. The Complexity of taste say it all. It's complex and out of this world.
Ahh I like Durian but can’t say It’s my favorite just yet. I have a list of favorites but I actually love Salak 😂 I mean there’s really no comparison of Salak and Durian. As you said the complexity of taste in Durian is insane.
There is one more other type of durian very rare and its hard to get. We called 'Durian Merah' (red colour inside) only in east malaysia (sabah/sarawak) .. But this durian merah need to cook first with oil, garlic, onion and other ingredient after cooked we eat with rice... If you eat directly like normal durian without cooked the taste not delicious..
Sounds sooo delicious! The thought of it makes my mouth water
Durian very smelly fruit,l'm american lngland saudi arabian 100 country citizen,
Smelly indeed but delicious
Dont trust any durian in Thailand.. they pluck from the tree before it ripe 🤣 they just dont know how the nature of durian... durian itself came from Malay words DURI mean Thorn...definitely you can trust the real taste of durian in Malaysia 😁😁😁
😂 Ahh no don’t say that, I loved my Durian experiences in Thailand. I’m working on getting better at picking them based on ripeness now at least. 😁 But I like both
@@CrissyUnfiltered hahaha...just joking 🙏😁 by the way enjoy your time in Malaysia although the weather very 🥵🥵🥵
@@Xeras10 😊Thank you, yea very hot but I take the heat over the cold and snow like back home 😁
Typically, northern part of malaysia will take durian with sticky rice. I agree that it tastes better if you take it with sticky rice rather than on its own.
Yea definitely adds more flavor to it
You will become the durian eater, hence, once you leave South East Asia esp. Malaysia and Thailand you will missed it.. 😉😅
I will definitely miss it! There is no other fruit that compares 😁
Afterall durian came from malay word duri meaning thorn
That's fruit really unique for everyone. Normally south east asia peoples like it but there also many cannot eat it. Even among our kids also some cannot take it. Even got headaches if smell it. Its not jokes but must admit it.
I agree, some people may not enjoy the smell and taste. I’m just so used to the smell so it actually makes me crave the Durian
I love durian but my wallet says go easy.
Yes we decided to treat ourselves to some expensive Durian 😂
I think I will stick with the least expensive ones for now
I prefer musang king coz i cannot afford black thorn.
I’d rather Musang King. It would be a luxury treat when I have it
@@CrissyUnfiltered other varieties in malaysia are 101, D24, red prawn, kampung durian. I also like 101 and D24 but their seeds are large compared to musang king. Btw, china only imports musang king from malaysia. They want the best of the best.
@@keangwooichoo6138 I actually want to try red prawn. So amazing how many varieties of fruits there are
@@CrissyUnfiltered i hv tried red prawn before. It is orange in colour as oppose to yellowish. But dry a bit. I prefer d24 and musang king
I was in Penang 3 days ago. Had ang heh/red prawn for RM35 per kg. Spent RM160 and whacked 5 durians before I flew back to KL. Best.
Hi there... I cringed when I see you pinched the durian the way you did. That's not how you eat your durian. It will leave a strong odour on your fingers that way (fortunately you have that plastic glove on). Just hold the whole piece and bite its meat out nicely. Well.. it's not a written rule though, it's just how we eat it. Anyway, have durians a few more time and your love for them will grow stronger by each bite.
Hello, yea I caught on pretty quickly and started eating that way.😬 My love for it does grow stronger with every bite especially when eating the Musang King. Next time I will make sure to eat Durian like a pro. 😊
Musang in english mean wolf.
Interesting! I had no idea
It is getting very expensive now.
Durians in Thailand test so good I like them but I not eat when they feel wet or damp I will chose surfaces of durian still green because it dry can you try eat as me told. test so good really.
I only had the durian with sticky rice in Thailand and then some desserts. I have to try it alone once again when I get back to Thailand
Yummy 😋 like
Musang King 😋
That's like so good..
They were pretty delicious
Put in a freezer and eat it later..
Ahh never thought to freeze it! great idea
