KING OF FRUITS
Each bread is brimmed with exquisite flavour and aroma. When durians mature and fall, they tend to have more flesh and a stronger aroma. The durian season usually occurs in July each year. Every durian breed requires specific conditions to grow, such as rainfall, altitude, temperature, constitution of the soil etc.
