It's always hard to choose durian that can fully match your expectation. but they can still taste differently despite the similarity in colours I agree that Musang King usually has 2 flavours.. predominantly sweet or bitter. Always choose one with a good strong aroma and reject if there's no smell at all when u sniff it And u don't need to get the durian close to your ear when shaking it. Just hold it tight horizontally with both hands and shake. U should feel the pulps inside moving slightly if the durian is fully ripe

Learning to choose durians in Singapore is just like learning to choose wine in mexico and learning to select cheeses in China. Singapore does not produce durians. Please go to Thailand and Malaysia.
