Types of Coconut

Green

T&L Coconut Sdn Bhd carry many varieties of green coconut. Among the types of green coconut we carry in our facility are Matang, Mawa, and Pandan. Young coconuts are usually sought out for their sweet water and tender flesh. Coconut water is said to provide a cooling effect when consumed on a hot scorching day. We also carry matured coconuts (kelapa tua) which are typically used in Malaysia and Singaporean cooking and desserts.
