Durian is on the rise in Costa Rica! This durian farm has 60 trees and counting as Don Carlos has found that durian is his favorite fruit and just can't stop planting. Check out what could be Costa Rica's first commercial-scale durian farm in this video plus a lot of other cool Central American fruits that don't grow in in SE Asia that we are tasting for the first time.

Durian originated from the Malay archipelago. The word Durian are from the Malay words, Duri - thorn and An - multiple. Musang King is rated as the "Rolls Royce" of durians and it originates from Malaysia.

[@secateenumrah]

I am from Malaysia. Durian is the native fruit of Malaysia. We have hundred of thousand of acres of Musang king, black thorn and at least 50 other varieties. Kindly visit Malaysia for more information about durian.

[@PemadamGergasi]

More than 200 varities registered in malaysia

[@adzmanhanif5645]

The price is also potong kepala..( cut throat)

[@mohdnadzrimohdzambiri3347]

[@tri-eye5554]

Never expected you to be in Costa Rica eating durian with like minded durian lovers lol . I love your passion for this fruit 😍

[@YearoftheDurian]

thank you! We durian lovers are all over the world and it's wonderful to get the opportunity to connect :)

[@YearoftheDurian]

thank yoU!

[@sophaman9193]

This durian fruits is is very popular in Asia and expensive please sell to Canada I'm originally from Cambodia but now I live in Canada for the last more than 40 years back home in Cambodia we grown a lot of durian fruits thanks for sharing your video take care bye from milton Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@wilsonng911]

Musang king my favourite 👍👍👍👍. Yeah correct. Let the fruit fall by itself. Also reduce the number of fruit in a cluster of fruit flowers so you can produce the best fruit. Install net below the tree so when the fruit falls it doesn’t split. Plant mangosteen also

[@ochoonda]

I like Don Carlos. All the best of luck to him and his enterprise. More competition offers more choices and cheaper durians for durian lovers!👍

[@shankhoo4321]

1:46 glad to hear that he say "i wait until it to fall"...durians are meant to eat fully ripped, not like those cutting down from trees that taste like potatoes

[@iera09]

Wow...the king of fruit can be planted everywhere now. Wow and you got rambutan and others tropical fruits too

[@Rapture77]

I'm Malaysian American and I live in both countries. I'm not a durian fan but interestingly Malaysia has hordes of Chinese tourists who come to Malaysia for durian. In fact durian is exported to China from Malaysia and it's considered the best breed of durian fruit in China that's why the tourism around durian is actually famous in Southeast Asia and Malaysia being the center. Musang King is the most famous breed of durian and is prized in Asia.

[@joeeng8181]

Yum Yum yum. I can eat durian any time and any day. Musang King is the best. Keep it up.

[@juliekiefer7675]

Durian is King of the fruit and mangosteen is Queen of the fruit. Lychee is Prince and Rambutan is Princess of the fruit there are many other good tropical fruit. We were traveling to Costa Rica last Summer for a week it's a beautiful Country we'll definitely come back thanks.

[@BETAanon]

Wow "Musang King" what a fortune. Fall by itself in nature , its well done. Selling "Musang King" very cheap in Costa Rica but in origin country Malaysia its sell around RM 70 / Kg. Good job

[@ditsygirl5409]

Wow… just amazing! You guys are going to give Thailand and Malaysia a run for their money with these durians! I’m sure a lot of Asians in US will love these Durians without the trip to South east Asia.

[@benaung3904]

Tq bro❤ Salam Durian Terbaik ❤ Durian Lover from Malaysia🎉

[@bengoh3907]

This Costa Rican durian farm owner knows the correct way to pry open a durian by not chopping it many times like many do. He just uses the tip of a chopper knife to pry open the husk along the clear lines dividing the segments of each chamber housing the seedy, delicious fruits.👍👍👍

[@PemadamGergasi]

I saw korean just cop like watermelon. So messy. In africa too, they dont know how to open. African call durian as malacca fruit

[@dwchen1]

This senior dude knew very well which is the best tropical fruit South East Asia can offer and he almost had it all in his garden halfway across planet Earth.

[@yttube5165]

I hope more countries will grow them so we can afford to buy durian. Currently they are selling for $20/kg.!

[@kohyangchi4307]

I 'm A Singapore Chinese Who Absolutely Loves Eating Durians and In All Sincerity I 'm Telling The Farm Owner That He IS UNDER PRICING His DURIANS Drastically . He Grows The Top Varieties & Even If He DOUBLES His PRICES , They Don't Even Come Close To What People In Penang , Malaysia , Thailand , Singapore and Even In Indonesia Are Paying . Good Luck To Him For His Sales 🤞 🤗

[@Liboch]

He sells his Musang King for USD4.35/lb (USD9.57/kg). The price of Musang King sold in Singapore and Malaysia (the origin of Musang King) is around USD10 to USD20, depending on season. Not too bad.

[@shaifulothman7442]

So excited to see durian grown in central America. Just to comment on the ripening of durian, yes the part where the fruit drops to the ground is crucial to activate the fermentation process which gives durian it's unique flavor and softer texture. That's why durian is always best consumed 3-4 hours after harvest, not immediately. I would love to try the Musang King of Costa Rica as I'm sure the taste would be slightly different due to weather and soil condition there

[@willsgarden6740]

Awesome, Don seems like such a nice person. Great video.

[@wanzaidiwanomar3378]

Wow .. now durian has spread to more places! Australia .. now Costa Rica!

[@kimloonchong8004]

Your durian farm looks exactly like cultivated ln Malaysia. Always eat the food while ripen n drop down.from the tree.. In Malaysia it cost rm 50 to 80 for Mustang king species.....king of the fruit 😊

[@armandaniel5559]

its money tree...means the tree that can make a lot of money...cheers from Malaysia!

[@cheras5948]

Longan? Rambutan? You really crazy uncle!!!! I want go to costa rica. Peace from malaysia 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@DurianKing70]

WOW, I did not know durian grows in Costa Rica, I love durian so much, but the one I can see the most where I Live in Houston, Tx is the Musanking. I think this is the only one I see and have eaten many times. Its my favorite fruit of all time. I have a nickname for this, The Durian King. haha I have 6 different durian t shirts, 2 durian back packs, durian socks, durian cup, durian mug, etc. I always ware a durian shirt to when I go play badminton almost 8 nights a week. I need to order some of the samples from you guys. I receive the newsletter and see the samples for sale.

[@YearoftheDurian]

Hi Robert, wow it's nice to hear you are a super durian lover like us! Yes, we have a lot of durians for sale on our website right now, 18 varieties actually, so you can order off our website anytime :)

[@ozianelucenarancholucena4170]

@@YearoftheDurianse tivesse oportinidade no Brasil compraria durian certamente. Sou muito curiosa por comê-lo. Ja plantei. A muda está pequenina. Sabe se tem algum local no Brasil que vanda a fruta?

[@victoriatran6460]

Send to America pleade

[@SekadarPendapat]

Mungkin durian lebih sesuai ditanam di Costa rica kerana musuh alami durian (segala macam penyakit) belum ada. Hal ini seperti halnya pohon getah yg berasal di brazil tapi lebih mudah ditanam di asia tenggara disebabkan musuh alami pohon getah di brazil tiada di Asia tenggara

[@gunjos7375]

He has beautiful fruit garden...and thats a joy of life when you get older and start to plant something and the trees remain for hundreds of years under his name...

[@liowpohhuat9107]

Musang king can planted in South America and central America likes Guyana ,Suriname,Brazil,and others

[@anthonyanderson9326]

So encouraging to see the ganyao seedling produce good quality fruit in just 7 years. Great vid with so many new fruits..aloha

[@truesight91]

Waiting for the fruit to fall by itself is the most natural way to go about it, the intelligence of nature gives you the fruit at the perfect timing, not when you "think" is best.

[@beautifuldream108]

It’s wonderful how you respect the durian fruit when you mention how it’s best if you let the fruit drop by itself. 👍

[@darrentran7992]

This is a wonderful tropical fruit and we love it and hope someday it can ship to USA. Thank you for the video!

[@shadwells460]

Nice content. Costa Rica is a special place. Even better now that durian is there now.

The farmer knows his durians. The best quality when it is fallen fruit.

[@kainghokseng1524]

I am from Cambodia. I love durian so much and I plant alot of durians in Kampot Province (The province that grow durian with high quality in Cambodia). Love your video ❤

Well done carlos. I hope you will have a most bountiful harvest of durian.

[@cheras5948]

[@jolintruong6263]

Love durian.

[@bartocastro3672]

This is new to me. I do believe Caribbean have similar tropical weather like SEA. Hope you guys enjoy it. Some American Big companies should make an investment because the likes of rich countries with massive markets like USA, European and Japanese still unexplored to this king of fruit.

[@james8708]

There is another durian fruit called Black Thorn which is better than Musang King and is much more pricey here in Malaysia.

Yessss,i like durian so much..

My love fruit in Costa Rica! Way to go costa Rica.

[@vivo9220]

Wow congrats bro..

[@DonYang73]

Wow, thats big! Yummy. Yes let durians fall by itself. In South East Asia, we love durians. A durian that size would be easily usd100. We are durian connoiseurs.

[@apakansaja8505]

The best durian is durian that fall naturally to the ground. Indicating that its fully ripen. You'll lost the sweetness if you pluck or harvest it from the tree.

[@putinrobani1023]

Wou keren kostarika ber tani durian mantap

[@basremetilla7205]

nice one...more power to u guys...

[@sonya3499]

durian to the next level…cant wait to taste overseas durian…❤❤❤

[@fruitfullivingcostarica]

Wow right in my neck of the woods! Had no idea there was such a large planting of durians so close. I have bought some grafted Menta Durian trees and was wondering the source.....seems Don Carlos is it! Gonna have to talk to Jake about connecting with Don Carlos.

[@chinfoomaa]

Here in California, we pay about USD$100 for a large fresh fruit, and they are never fully ripen, and you take a chance buying it, and 35% of the time you cannot eat it because it's just too raw and tasteless, then you have to toss it out because no returns accepted.

[@PemadamGergasi]

Where the durian came from?

[@andrewchang8192]

That Thailand durian . Malaysian durian . Harvested after or wait till the fruits drop. ( Full ripe )

[@megatron6393]

Love costa rica has grow this tree

[@lovefreebee]

for us truviets IF the fruit fall by itself most likely the flesh will taste a bit bitter. therefore, we'd pick the one's with the green skin or not riped open. hoping south america has interest in growing more durian trees so that we don't have to relying on import from thailand & malaysia. BTW, what some lucky fish to have durian...great video!

[@abusham5104]

Hope Brazil can planted durian too..the weather is similar to Asean Country ...
