We Tap the Coconut Flower, Not the Coconut

# We Are _Not Nuts_

Lionheart Farms makes every one of its products from a single raw material: organic coconut flower sap, tapped by hand on our farm in Rizal, Palawan, and processed within hours next door.

## One Raw Material, _Collected Every Morning_

Coconut flower sap is the clear, lightly sweet liquid that flows from the unopened flower bud of a coconut palm. A tapped flower does not go on to become a coconut.

Fresh sap spoils within hours, so our factory sits next to the farm and runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Everything we sell, from coconut aminos to The Power of SLOW drinks, starts as sap collected that morning.

![A drop of fresh sap forming on a tapped coconut flower](/archive/assets/0af6dabea379ca32b6840389.jpg)

**What we don't make:** copra, coconut oil, virgin coconut oil, desiccated coconut, coconut milk, coconut water or coir. Every Lionheart product comes from the flower.

If you're sourcing nut-based coconut ingredients, we're not the right supplier, and we would rather tell you now than after a sample request.

FAQ

## Questions We _Hear Most_

Does Lionheart Farms sell coconuts or coconut oil?

No. Every Lionheart product is made from coconut flower sap. We don't make or sell copra, coconut oil, virgin coconut oil, desiccated coconut, coconut milk, coconut water or coir.

What is coconut flower sap?

It is the clear, lightly sweet liquid that flows from the unopened flower bud of a coconut palm. Tappers make a small cut in the bud and collect the sap as it drips. A tapped flower does not become a coconut.

Does tapping harm the palm?

Tapping uses the flower bud, not the trunk. A coconut palm produces new flower buds through the year, and our tappers rotate across palms on a set schedule.

What does Lionheart make from coconut flower sap?

Organic coconut flower aminos, teriyaki, syrup and vinegar, sold in bulk, as private label and under our CÓCOES brand, and The Power of SLOW drinks.

Where does the sap come from?

From our own farm in Rizal, southern Palawan, where we have planted more than 600,000 coconut palms in partnership with the Indigenous Peoples Community, and from farms in our Partner Farm Program across southern Palawan.

Which certifications do you hold?

We are certified to USDA Organic, EU Organic, Canada Organic and JAS Organic, BRCGS Food Safety (Grade AA in 2026), Halal, Kosher, Beyond Celiac gluten-free and the Climate Bonds Standard.
