Mong Thong Durian: A unique experience
Feb 14, 2025
The Mong Thong Durian, also known as the "Queen of Fruits," is one of the most popular durian varieties worldwide. This fruit, originally from Thailand, boasts a unique combination of flavor and aroma, making it a true delight for gourmets.
Taste and aromas 😍
The Mong Thong Durian is characterized by its creamy texture and mild yet complex flavor. The aromas of this durian are a harmonious blend of sweet and warm notes reminiscent of vanilla, caramel, and a hint of pepper.
Compared to other durian varieties, the smell of Mong Thong is less intense, making it particularly attractive to those who do not like the strong durian scent.
The first bite reveals a rich, sweet flavor accompanied by a subtle bitterness. This balance of sweetness and bitterness gives the Mong Thong durian a depth that sets it apart from other fruits. The creamy texture of the flesh, almost buttery soft, completes the taste experience.

Spiny shell and size
The Mong Thong durian is easily identifiable by its large size and spiky skin, which protects the soft and creamy flesh inside. On average, each fruit weighs between 2 and 7 kilograms, although some specimens can grow even larger. Ripe fruits are easily identified by their yellowish color.
Durian fruits grow on large trees that can reach up to 50 meters in height and thrive particularly well in the tropical regions of Thailand, where the climate and soil provide ideal conditions.

Stinky fruit and restrictions
The durian is often called the "stinky fruit" because its intense smell isn't to everyone's liking. In fact, the smell can be so strong for some that the fruit is banned from many hotels, airplanes, and public transportation in Southeast Asia. This is because the smell can linger in enclosed spaces for a long time, even after the fruit has been consumed.
