King Coconut Water is indigenous to Sri Lanka. It is one of the main beverages on the island. It is different than a typical green coconut that we (I) think of. The King Coconut is a bright orange colored coconut. I have tried coconut water and I am not a huge fan of it. But I will be trying this in Sri Lanka. It is said to be sweeter than a green coconut. What I like about it is that there is no human intervention in growing these coconuts, therefore there are no fertilizers or pesticides used on them. I found this great website that talks all about these coconuts and how they are different from what we are used to. http://www.kingcoconut.asia/faq.html
