Durian. That big thorny fruit is a divisive figure in the world. With a distinct texture and taste, you either love it or hate it. Intensely.

Fortunately for Malaysians, most of us belong to the first camp (except for our writer John, don't judge him, please).

But as much as we love them, its potent smell makes it difficult for us to eat it like a regular fruit.

This is where Tropik One comes in, the recently launched service aims to deliver fresh Musang King durians right to your doorstep - all without the strong smell!

Did you know durians are banned in most public places eg. hotels and subways because of its strong smell?

Durians are sealed in a special vacuum pack that takes away the smell - without taking away its freshness and flavour - which means you could store up your durians in the fridge for days and months even!

We aim to make-up for this fruit’s minor shortcoming, by delivering the King of Fruits to you – odor free. Our company, TropikOne, specializes in Musang King delivery and packaging, eliminating the overly pleasant aroma of the fruit by vacuum sealing in its freshness.

This means you can finally treat the durian like your regular favourite fruit – store it in your fridge, bring it in your car, or present it as a gift to your friends – all without having to smell it right until the moment you choose to eat it.

Did you know that Musang King's origin is said to be from Gua Musang, Kelatan?

The kind folks from Tropik One sent us a couple of boxes of Musang King awhile back. We had a good time stuffing our faces with them in the office! Thanks, guys! :D

That yellow goodness.
