We don't mix or homogenize our coconut water so, just like in whole coconuts, there can be variation among bottles. One of these variations is the level of antioxidants. While all of our coconut water is perfectly clear when it's bottled, those that contain the highest levels of antioxidants can spontaneously turn pink with time. Additives could hide the harmless color variation, but we love that the delicious pink bottles show that we add nothing to our coconut water. We were afraid people would run from the pink bottles, but by telling them the truth, we now know many people who seek them out.
- ITEM WILL BE SHIPPED PRIORITY with ice packs. Refrigerate immediately.
- HPP extends the refrigerated shelf life of our coconut water while maintaining the delicate organoleptic compounds found in a freshly cracked coconut. It requires specialized machinery, facilities and the staff to perform the process, but also a dedicated management.
- Obtaining the level of quality that we wanted forced us to create the entire system from scratch. We were utilizing technology that had never been used with coconut water. This was in addition to setting up a system for harvesting, and bottling that did not exist. Finally, everyone was already familiar with coconut water lining their pantry shelves, so educating retailers and consumers on a raw product and the variation that nature gives us (as seen in our pink bottles) was imperative.
- There were many false starts and mistakes before we found the right opportunity in Thailand. Now we have strong ties to the communities we work with there and are hoping to expand to new agroforestry locations that grow our specific variety of coconuts.
- Like all freshly squeezed juices, coconut water will naturally go bad shortly after the coconut is opened. With the use of HPP, Harmless Harvest coconut water achieves a longer refrigerated shelf life. It is similar to milk in that there is a risk of spoilage if it is not kept refrigerated or drunk before the best by date.
