The Durian Story

$44± ~ very good durian quality . Very bitter and creamy. Ordered few rounds. Definitely worth the price!!

I’ve learnt that you consume durians according to intensity, ending with the most intense flavoured cultivars. Started off with D13 which was sweet, before moving on to the Golden Phoenix with its pale yellow bittersweet softer flesh. Ended with Wang Zhong Wang which surprisingly had an almost alcoholic bitterness that lingered on.

Dubbed as the “Truffle” of durian.
Thick flesh, bittersweet, intense flavour of liquor, with aftertaste notes of coffee, chocolate and toffee.
For all Durian lovers, try this once and you will never look at other durians.

Black Gold ($20/kg)
.
Throwback to last night’s much anticipated virgin taste of the black gold @the_durian_story . The rich smooth creamy texture with its pungent aroma and bittersweet taste gives me what I call a “close eyes, tilt head” experience! The ginormous size of this was too much for us. Thankfully, we could conveniently vacuum pack the rest home and save this for another day. Reservations are strogly recommended as there was none for sale to walk-ins yesterday.

The bumper crop for durian is here again, and prices has fallen due to a huge supply from Malaysia. The low prices is expected to last for one or two more weeks, so go for it now if you like durians.

If you're a fan of Mao Shan Wang, it's selling only for $15/kg when I was at @the_durian_story yesterday. Better still, go for the Black Gold, which is a few grades higher than Mao Shan Wang, at $19/kg (price as of 15 July 2018).
🔸
So how does Black Gold taste like? What's most distinctive to me is the creamy alcoholic taste and scent. You don't always get small seed ("yew ji"), but the ones I ate all had a silky texture, and tastes buttery with a bitter aftertaste.

They were bustling with business yesterday. Reservations are strongly recommended to secure your durian.
