In the realm of durian lovers, the Musang King reigns supreme.

But there’s an even rarer treat at Karak Karak Durian Farm, a hidden gem in Karak, Pahang – the low-hanging Musang King durian.

🙈🍈 Don’t worry, little durians, I’m just here to admire your beauty… and maybe take a tiny bite. 😉

It’s as if the heavens have parted, and the divine fruit has descended from above, hanging tantalizingly close to the ground, ready to be plucked by the fortunate few.

This natural phenomenon is a testament to the farm’s dedication to preserving the authentic growth of its durian trees and the incredible workings of nature.

😍🍈 Nice to see, nicer to eat, and even better to touch while still perched on the branch – the ultimate durian tree-hugger experience!

Foong Chan Kit, the man running this 10-acre farm and a former businessman who worked for the Asian Wall Street Journal (AWSJ) in Hong Kong, shares his awe for the low-hanging Musang Kings with TRP.

“It’s a natural rarity,” the 61-year-old from Kuala Lumpur explains, his eyes sparkling with wonder.

“The low-hanging formation is not something we can control. It’s a gift from nature due to the tree’s unique growth pattern.”

A Majestic Durian Landscape

As you walk through the farm’s lush grounds, you’ll be struck by the majestic presence of 350 durian trees, each with its own story.

Among them, the Musang King trees stand tall, their branches reaching out like arms eager to share their precious fruit.

Dedication to Proper Farming Practices

With many years of experience and a commitment to natural farming practices, he and his partners work tirelessly to ensure the health and longevity of their trees.

Beyond the rare low-hanging Musang Kings, the farm offers a variety of other durian delights, including D101, D24, and Black Thorn.

And with nitrogen blast freezing, visitors can indulge in these durians’ creamy, bittersweet goodness 365 days a year.

This is especially remarkable because the durian season typically lasts only from July to August and briefly in January.

Thanks to this innovative preservation method, durian enthusiasts can now enjoy their favorite fruit year-round, regardless of the season.
