Musang King

D197 Musang King (猫山王)

Known as the "King of Kings," the Musang King is the most sought-after variety in the world. Our D197 harvest comes exclusively from old-tree orchards in the high-altitude regions of Pahang, where the soil and climate produce a more complex, concentrated flavor.

Flavor Profile

  • Texture: Exceptionally thick, velvety, and creamy. It has a "melt-in-the-mouth" consistency that is unmatched by other varieties.

  • Taste: A sophisticated balance of intense sweetness followed by a distinct, lingering bitterness.

  • Aroma: Pungent, sweet, and heavy—the hallmark of a perfectly ripened fruit.

The Durian Lah Quality

  • Tree-Ripened: Every fruit is allowed to drop naturally from the tree at peak maturity.

  • Flash-Frozen/Vacuum Sealed: To preserve the "farm-to-table" freshness for the Melbourne market, our durians are processed immediately after harvest.

  • Authenticity: Each batch is verified D197, characterized by the signature five-pointed star shape on the base of the husk.
