Can you imagine, I still have 50+ varieties coming! I am getting a lil impatient really.
Thailand is quite big and the the people there like variety in any product, so I guess this is how the cultivars there evolved to suit the taste of the people from different provinces.
The research station has 280+ assessions and they narrowed down to about 90 for me in terms of difference in the taste.
I really hope to see you in M'sia one day Bob and we will have great fun!!
