Do you know your durians? 3


D17
D17 is dark cream flesh. The taste is slightly dry but sweet. It is a tasty durian.



Coupling
This durian got its unusual name because it looks like two durians joined together, one big and one small.
When split open, you almost thought the two halves belong to two different durians. Coupling has whitish
flesh which is slightly dry but tastes good.



Ooi Kyau (Tumeric Durian)
The name Ooi Kyau (tumeric) describes the colour of the bright yellow flesh of this durian.
It is very sweet and tasty.


Chaer Phoy (Green Skin Durian)
Chaer Phoy is shaped like a small canteloupe. The skin is bright green, giving it the name which means 'green skin'. Chaer Phoy has creamy white flesh which is a bit dry, not too sweet but tasty.


Ang Jin (Red Yoke Durian)
As the name suggests, Ang Jin Durian has deep orange flesh. It is very sweet and tasty.




Lin Fong Jiau
This durian is named after Lin Fong Jiau, aka Mrs Jackie Chan. I wonder whether it is indicative of the relationship of the celebrity couple.
