Well I want to write my experience about this product , I am from a Tropical island (Cuba) and my family have a big "coconut plantation " that mean a lot for me and I hope for you too ... so recently I decided to buy a variety of those brands , so I order Zico pack , O.N.E natural experience pack , one Vitacoco pack , and a big tetrapack from vitacoco too , and believe me I follow my instinct , because before I buy it I check "You Tube ". Video of the brands , and i choose Vita coco ....and for my surprise 5 days later arrived the order to my door ....and them I was ready to the flavor test with my daughter and my wife , believe it or not my daughter grow drinking coconut water and eating the pulp too , I think more often than a regular cow milk .... Now attention carefully ... I try with tree diferent brands ... So now is the turn for a child with only 4 years ... 2 and half in Cuba and 1 and half in the USA so I gave her Zico .....after O.N.E....and the last Vitacoco ...and without comments and nothing my daughter choose the same brand that I choose too ...(VITACOCO) because is the most close 99.8% to the fresh coconut taste...... So consider that a child with only 4 years old .... Believe it or not....... Choose the best one ...This is so far my. experience...and I am sorry cause my english is not perfect so I try to be as much clear and understandable possible...thanks and I hope my opinion, comments will be benefitial for everyone out there...bye .....a Cuban family..

Absolutely delicious. As someone who grew up drinking coconut water every day in east Africa, it was hard to live without it in the US. A friend recently introduced me to VitaCoco and it is perfect! Tastes exactly like a fresh coconut, but with the added benefit of being chilled! I LOVE IT. Only wish it were cheaper so I could guzzle it in the quantities I'm used to!
"Tastes Great and Very Refreshing!" 2008-06-12

My wife has been drinking coconut water since she was little. I have never drank coconut water in my life. I originally picked up some cases of ZICO for my wife a few months ago when Amazon was running a promotion. She liked it and thought it was pretty good. I took one sip and that was all I could stand, and vowed never to try it again! My wife just recently used up all the ZICO so I came to Amazon to buy some more for her. While here, I happened to stumble across the Vita Coco brand and decided to read the customer reviews. I was very happy with what I had read, so I decided to take a chance and purchase a case. It arrived yesterday and after chilling it in the fridge for a while, I gave one to my wife to try. She let out a big MMMMM after the first sip! I was curious, so I deicided to grab my own carton and have a taste. One sip turned into two, and then three, and four, and more! I have to say, Vita Coco is a really great tasting coconut water, and I am now hooked! This may sound silly, but for me the package graphics actually make the beverage more enjoyable!
I originally bought this for my wife, but now I'm back here on Amazon and ready to purchase some more before I end up drinking it all myself! Let me just finish by saying that for someone who had never drank coconut water in his life, and could not tolerate a second sip of ZICO, you can believe that Vita Coco is a great tasting, quality brand that I'm sure you will just love! I only wish it was a little cheaper on the wallet, but it's still worth it in my book. Guess that will make me savor it even more, like a fine wine. I just finished one carton about 10 minutes ago, and now after writing this review, I'm ready to grab another one!
For the record, my intent is not to bash ZICO at all. My wife still likes the taste of it and would still buy it. You may have tried it and like it as well, and that's good! I'm just giving my opinion as someone who has never drank coconut water at all, and found Vita Coco to be the most enjoyable to me. If you're not sure, then give them both a try and see what you think. But if you are new to coconut water, I think you would enjoy the Vita Coco brand and should probably give that a try first.

I first bought this last month for my wife after delivery. I have bought 10 cases so far in a month! I drank most of them though! I grew up drinking tender coconut water in India to quench your thirst or when sick.
The natural flavor of Vitacoco is very close to the real tender-coconut water. My wife loves this too and she is very choosy when it comes to taste. I drink one when I go home in the evening and I feel rejuvenated drinking this. All natural, no sugars added!I used the coupon coconut4 to get 2 cases for $25 shipped! worth every penny.

This stuff is soo good that I can never just have one pack! To top it off, it is healthy too. The taste is authentic and there are no preservatives. Till July 31, you can get two cartons for $25!
