I've ordered a few times from Spikes Durian for their consistent quality every time. Their MSW really hits all the right notes of custardy bitterness and sweetness, almost on the edge of being over ripe but not quite - ticks all my boxes. The aromas are intoxicating (in a good way that only durian lovers will appreciate!). Will be ordering again...soon!
1. I could not tell the difference between fresh and this
2. I was surprised to learn it was frozen as defrosted durian usually becomes watery. It is as good as fresh durian
3. Packaging and presentation is good. Forgotten if it was vacuum packed or not. But the quantity could be more 😁
