Can I still eat Musang King when traveling to Malaysia in February?

If the authentic Musang King durian is produced in Malaysia, its peak season is from May to July. Once a year. Other times it was from Thailand to Vietnam.

Mao Shan King is one of the famous varieties of durian. Durian is known as the "King of Fruits", with the one produced in Malaysia taking the top spot. The top variety is "Golden Phoenix", the second is "Maoshan King", the next is "King Sultan", and then the Golden Pillow... Only later did I consider Thailand’s “Golden Finger” and so on. Although Jinzhen is also a good variety, compared with the top three, the taste is not even the slightest bit worse. Because it is said that the golden pillows eaten in China are generally grown in Thailand. They are cut and exported before they are ripe, and then sold after they are ripe. The top varieties in Malaysia wait for them to ripen naturally and fall off on their own. Moreover, in order to maintain the best growth environment, they are generally planted on sloping ground, because water will flow down the sloping ground and will not accumulate at the roots of the durian tree. Only in this way can the durian fruits grown in this way be plump, dry and refreshing. sweet. But it is a pity that because it is naturally ripe, it will usually crack after a day or two if dropped, and bacteria will enter. Therefore, this top-quality durian is never exported to Malaysia and cannot be eaten elsewhere. It can only be eaten in Malaysia. You can only eat it when you come to Singapore. What's more, it is said that you have to make a reservation to eat the top-notch ones.

"Mao Shan King" is indeed the best of the best. As soon as the lid is opened, a rich fragrance hits your nose. This fragrance is by no means comparable to that of ordinary gold pillows. I have never smelled such fragrant and mellow durian before, it is so refreshing~! Judging from the color, Mao Shan King can also be called the best. I haven't seen the "Golden Phoenix" one, so I don't know what it is like. Compared with other varieties, the color is thicker, mainly orange, and the color is uniform, gorgeous and very attractive. The taste is even better. The flesh is thick and the core is small (its core is only about a quarter of the average durian, which is a little bigger than my thumb). It melts in the mouth, but it does not lose the silky toughness it should have. . The rich sweetness that comes with it is enough to trigger every nerve in the mouth, and finally the sweetness is all gone, tut tut. . . This feeling is amazing. All in all, it’s great, incomparable~! ! !

Why is the durian product named after "Maoshan King"? "Maoshan" is the transliteration of the Malay word musang, which refers to civet. Civets have a keen sense of smell and are good at finding the best durians, so people use "Maoshan" to name the best durians, and "Maoshan King" is the king of the best durians.
