Is this coconut water pasteurized?

It does not say so anywhere on the can, but anything that is canned is heated as part of the process.

According to Food Babe: Taste Nirvana - No concentrates or additives in this brand, and their young coconuts are sustainably grown, harvested and organic (though not labeled as such). I really like how it's packaged in glass bottles. They are the only company that told me they use a "steam sterilization" process which is a combination of steam and pressure.

This is definitely refined. A easy giveaway is the packaging - coconut oil is solid and only liquifies at 76 degrees or greater which is why it's sold in jars not bottles. I prefer to buy the huge jar of raw, unrefined coconut oil that way it has multiple uses and there's no degradation in the effectiveness.

No. It is all natural coconut water. There is a company that makes powdered coconut water that you add to to water. But this is regular pure coconut water.

Yes, it's ultrafiltered/microfiltered, which means cold-filtered (not heat-pasteurized).

It is 100% Coconut, not made from concentrate, however in the fine print for the ingredients, it says less than 1% Fruit sugar and Vitamin C added. I don't find it very sweet, however Vita Coco (Mango or Pineapple combo) I do find way too sweet. I have tried other coconut waters and this brand is tasty, at least to my sense of taste.

I didn't mention it because I was reading the same product description that you see here. Your question led me to do a bit of research and actually I believe it is BPA free. The coconut water is packed in a Tetra Pak. Here's a link to a website that gives tips for avoiding BPA. If you look under the soup category you'll see some info about Tetra Paks being BPA free. http://www.breastcancerfund.org/reduce-your-risk/tips/avoid-bpa.html

While there is no 'coconut water authenticity agency', we are able to read the ingredients. In the same way that we buy rBST-free milk or GMO-free soy sauce and hope that the labeling is honest, we buy Zico. Though, for what it is worth, VitaCoco tastes waaay better.

Sort of. It comes as a block and must be diluted with hot water to make the cream. However, if you are used to buying coconut cream in a can,know that this product, while technically the same, has a really different texture. If you are using it in Indian cooking or Thai, you may not notice the difference, but coconut cream is much smoother and sweeter. I think this product is sufficiently different that it can alter the entire flavor profile of a dish. It is very grainy and far less sweet. Good for what it is. But not really the same as the canned stuff.

Yes. Unfortunately the good stuff is expensive. I've never seen this at Costco or any other big box store. ...only at Whole Foods.... and I hate Whole Foods. With that said, this is the gold standard in bottled coconut water. Simply the best.

In general I like coconut water. I ended up buying coconut-pineapple and it wasn't what I expected. Won't buy again

Yes. About 1 1/2 yrs from the time I purchased it. If you were concerned about it going bad and were close to the date it would likely be fine in the freezer. Just give yourself plenty of time to warm it up to use. That may change the texture but not likely since it is creamy with small bits of coconut in it. I love this stuff!

First of all it is a sauce, not a paste. Second yes, it is not processed in the sense that it is only tomatoe and nothing else,but being "canned" (it is a carton actually) it is pasteurized/sterilized...... Hope this is helping.

This water does not have added sugar. It is the main reason why I drink it other than for hydrating after Bikram Yoga. It's all natural. Normally something is added such as calcium or aloe. Natural coconut water needs nothing added to it. I prefer the pulp in it as well. The meat of the coconut in moderation is very good for your health and diet.

No it does not taste like coconut. More like Soy Sauce, that is what I use it for.

They are not raw if they are pasteurized. So Amazon needs to be clear on this and not state they are raw or someone should sue them.

If you go to the grocery store and look at these on the shelf you'll notice they come from different countries. My mom is from the Philippines, and the ones that are bottled there (I've managed to buy some, same brand), do taste just like fresh coconut water that's just been harvested from the tree. We were there last summer visiting family. I love this stuff because it reminds me of my grandparents farm. Bottles will vary in flavor, like buying oranges from the store, some are naturally sweeter than others.
