Grape Farm Cameron

The grape farms are located in Blue Valley, Cameron Highlands.  If you are coming from Simpang Pulai, before turning right on the T-junction going into Kampung Raja, go straight and follow the “Blue Valley” sign.  If you are coming from Tapah, go through Kampung Raja, turn right at the T-junction (turn left will take you to Simpang Pulai) and follow the “Blue Valley” sign.  You will see the “Grapes & Tomatoes Farm” signboard after a few minutes’ drive.

The grapes farms are owned by KC Kwang & Sons that is really worth the visit because the fruits are compost grown, meaning they are organic and can be eaten without washing.

The grapes are indeed a pedigree breed, the Kyoho that originated from Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan. The Kyoho grapes are a cross-breed between American and European grape varieties. “Kyoho” (巨峰) meaning “Giant Mountain” is also metaphorical for the grape size because Kyoho grapes are one of the largest in size they are also dubbed “The King of Grapes”.  The grapes are only grown in certain parts of the world like Japan, Taiwan, Korea, the USA, and Chile.  Now I’ve found one more place where it is cultivated in Cameron Highlands!

The grapes are typically harvested twice a year, which is January and August.  The owner told us that with the weather in Cameron Highlands, it is possible to manipulate so you get the grapes all year round.  How awesome is that? Perhaps that’s why we see the grapes in different stages – some are still green, some are light purple and some have matured into blackish purple.

To be able to eat Kyoho grapes locally grown in Cameron Highlands is a luxury because the grapes need an initial 3 years period for the first harvest – quite a long time to wait for some good stuff! Furthermore, eating locally grown fruits minimizes the carbon footprint so that’s environmental-friendly too!  The stretch of grapes farm is netted with a small portion of it open to visitors.

Opening Hours: Daily 8 am – 6 pm

Address: No. 33 Main Road, Kg Raja, 39010 Cameron Highlands, Pahang, Malaysia.

How to Choose and Store Sweet Corn for Maximum Freshness

Sweet corn is a beloved staple in many kitchens, known for its crisp texture and naturally sweet flavor. To enjoy it at its best, it's important to know how to choose and store it properly. Here are some tips to ensure your sweet corn stays fresh and delicious. Choosing the Perfect Sweet Corn Look for Green Husks: When picking sweet corn, start by checking the husks. They should be green color and tightly wrapped around the cob. If you notice any brown or dried-out husks, it's a sign that the corn isn't fresh. Feel for Firm Kernels: Give the corn a gentle squeeze through the husk. The kernels should feel firm and plump. If they’re mushy or shriveled, put that cob back – it’s past its prime. Check the Silk: The silk (those thread-like strands coming out of the top)  should be slightly sticky to the touch and look fresh. Depending on the variety of sweet corn, the color can range from light to dark, so focus more on its condition rather than the specific color. Check for Insects: Look for any small holes or damaged areas on the husk. These could be signs of insect infestation. A clean, undamaged husk is what you’re aiming for. Storing Sweet Corn Refrigerate Immediately: Corn starts to lose its sweetness as soon as it’s picked, so refrigerate it as soon as possible to preserve its flavor. According to the University of Illinois Extension, corn can lose up to 50% of its sugar within 24 hours if not refrigerated. Keep the Husks On: Store the corn with the husks still on. They act as a natural protective barrier and help retain moisture. Reader testimonial: “I’ve always kept the husks on my sweet corn before storing it, and it’s remained fresh and flavorful for several days.” Use a Plastic Bag: Place the ears of corn in a plastic bag to keep them from drying out. Make sure the bag is closed tightly. Freeze for Long-Term Storage:  If you can't use the corn within a few days, remove the…
