Harmless Harvest Organic Coconut Water Drink, Hydration with Natural Electrolytes, No Sugar Added, Fair for Life Certified, Pure Coconut Water 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 24)

My wife and I love the water from young coconuts. It started as a simple pleasure in Thai restaurants and then our grocery stores started carrying young coconuts and you could even buy the special coring tool that allows you to insert a straw and drink cold bliss. She was always trying to find a bottled version that tasted as good as what came out of the coconut. Honestly, she brought home at least 6 or 7 different kinds and they were all AWFUL. How could coconut water taste so bad just from bottling? I didn't get it.So I was highly suspicious when the young guy working in vitamins tried to sell me on Harmless Harvest. I told him the whole paragraph above and then some. I had my narrative and I was sticking to it. But he was so bloody EARNEST about it, that I bought one bottle, fully prepared to bring it back the next day knowing it would taste terrible like the rest.It didn't. It not only didn't taste terrible, it tasted MARVELOUS! Pretty much just like we had from years of sticking a straw into a young coconut!I went back to the store, found the vitamin guy, and happily raved about Harmless Harvest, bought a ton, came home, shared it with my wife and the whole clan. Everyone agreed. Bottled coconut water didn't suck! This was truly GREAT!It was my wife who suggested that the fact that HH does NOT use preservatives probably had something to do with how bad all of the others tasted. That's why it always ships frozen or refrigerated. I think she's right.Costco carries it now too, so we stock up when we're there, but I've ordered it here too. The first time the case arrived in 2 days with the bottles half frozen. We put them all in the fridge and they were fantastic.I can't recommend this coconut water and no other any higher!Great product, great company, and they also tick all of the environmentally responsible boxes.Coconut water is one of the best electrolyte drinks you can have straight from Mother Nature. There is nothing better.You gotta try this stuff. Really impressed with how it got to us half frozen and so fresh!

I was doing a detox and it called for coconut water. I tried several other brands and this is the brand that we fell in love with. It’s so good. A mild nutty sweetness. The carbs are a little high but it’s so good I overlook it. I usually go to Whole Foods but when they’re out, I come here. What I’ve found is I’m getting a fresh batch when I order from Amazon. When the bottles first arrive, the water wasn’t as pink. They got darker over the next fee days. The water I get from Whole Foods are generally already that dark pink so don’t be started by the lighter pink color.

It’s the best bottled coconut water on the market!

I buy it because I like the ingredients of calcium, potassium and magnesium to help reduce body cramps. I enjoy its cold refreshing light melon flavor. It encourages me to drink more water, since I enjoy the product. It is expensive in price though.

The best tasting and healthy Coconut Water.

Cost too much

Expensive but good

i have been drinking coconut water for maybe 3 decades or something like that, i used to get it in little cardboard boxes with a small straw to poke through a foil place on the top, and this gave a feeling of sucking coconut water right out of a coconut. Gradually all the brands except Trader Joes stopped including the straws, sadly. But i got it at Trader Joes with the straws. Currently they are not able to get it so i turned to Amazon to find a new coconut water to drink. i was looking for the 11oz container with pure organic coconut water, most importantly, no sugar added, and nothing added. i like sweet things as much as the next person but i enjoyed having the alternative of pure coconut water which was at most mildly sweet, a sweet aftertaste, not a pronounced sweetness. i bought one brand that met all those criteria except sugar was added and i didn't notice it because i thought "pure coconut water" meant nothing added. So i gave those away because i wanted the taste of coconut water and not sugar. Any sweetness to my coconut water would have to be mild and more of a slight aftertaste.Because this brand seemed to have all the things i wanted, it was 12oz, close enough to 11oz, and because it was pure coconut water, and because the ingredients said that was all that was in it, i accepted having to pay a much higher price than all the other coconut waters. When the first shipment arrived (i got two shipments, one from WholeFoods which i could get next day, and the other larger order directly from this company which took longer to come (but the company did ship it really fast and it arrived earlier than estimated, i appreciate that). When i drank the coconut water, i was disappointed because it was very sweet. I guess their coconut water is sweeter than other coconut waters i've drank over the years. Unlike some reviewers, i would not say it was bad at all, if you want sweetness that's more than a mild aftertaste, i thought it was great, really good, but that wasn't what i wanted. it's very smooth and i like sweet as much as the next person, but in coconut water i'm looking for the kind of mild sweetness i dont' even taste at first.So this is just me, i read many of the reviews now, not before i ordered, and i see many people like the sweetness a lot and i can see why. But i was disappointed. i looked at the ingredients and the list of vitamins, sodium, and sugars. It says on the contiainer of one serving, 20 grams of sugars. On the description on the Amazon page, it says 14 grams of sugar per serving, in the list of things they say about what's good about it. My 12 oz serving says 20 grams of sugars. The kind of coconut water i drank before had 13 grams of sugar in an 11 oz serving. This Harmless kind said it had 14 grams in a 12 oz serving, so i thought that was close enough. No wonder it's sweeter than i thought it would be, 20 grams is a lot of sugar and obviously tastes much sweeter than the 13 grams of sugars i'm used to. i'm sure it must be hard for the company that makes it to please people who want it to be more sweet and people who want it to be less sweet. i would just say, it would have helped me avoid buying something i didn't want if they would put the right amount of the contents on their Amazon description. At the end of the list of nutritional contents, there's a hyperlink that says Report incorrect information. So i clicked on that and filled a out a short form, but when i got to the comments where i could tell them which information is incorrect, the form wouldn't let me type anything. Rightly or wrongly, this gave me the feeling they weren't really interested. It was a lot of money, and i know i'm taking my chances when i order something, but these negative experiences add up.Happily i found another brand that has the taste i'm looking for. That one has a couple of other problem issues for me, i will try to figure out how to adapt to that, and will keep looking for a brand that has everything i want and need, and hope that Trader Joes will get theirs back in, and with the little straws.
