Don't hold your breath, Durian lovers. Yes! Weee! is bringing you the world-renowned, wildly delicious Kanyao Durian, hailing from the orchards of Nonthaburi region in Thailand, straight to your doorstep.
100% FRESH, NOT FROZEN. DURIAN MEAT! Ready to eat and melt in your mouth. This is the durian of your dreams.
Kanyao, which means "long stem" in Thai (ทุเรียนก้านยาว) durian is specific to the Nonthaburi region north of Bangkok and is considered to be the best in the world thanks to its sweet taste and creamy texture. The flesh doesn't become mushy when it's ripe, and the aroma is more subtle than Chanee, like a custard of overripe mangosteen, ambrosia, and sweet milk. The fruit is also typically round shaped and smaller than the other varieties.
In Thailand, a Kanyao Durian can fetch $200 - $500 each from the best farms, depending on its size. Durian season is from April to August in Thailand, so the best time to buy one is right now.
Kanyao Durian tree yields less fruits per harvest, sometimes only 5-6 fruits by nature or nurture. This is to keep each fruit undiluted in taste and ensure higher nutrients. These fruits were wrapped and protected individually so that insects or chemicals do not touch them. The farmers baby these durians.
RARE AND AVAILABLE IN LIMITED QUANTITIES!
If you ever get a chance to eat a Kanyao, take it.
