Kapili , Xiao Hong and Green Skin durians - Balik Pulau trio



Kapili , Xiao Hong and Green Skin are durian species that are not too expensive , sometimes worlds apart in taste , to tease out that durian connoisseur in you .

The island is in the midst of a bumper harvest and prices have reduced a little , but I never take my chances nowadays , so I only trust this little secret place now .
Howeverrrrr , if you want to know the exact location from me , move along and don't waste your time because my lips are sealed .

Anyway , yesterday was when we delighted in savouring the trio of different species which I shall attempt to describe the taste and texture to you , best as I can .

Green Skin and Black Pearl - Durians from Penang and Pahang in one sitting !


I did a takeaway on just one single  packet costing 20 ringgit , just to test this new trader out the other day . 
The first bite triggered something in me . I remembered having eaten it as a child , the taste was all at once , grassy , nurturing , comforting ,  lightly gassy midway , with a potent climax at the last bit , and so we returned again for more .
