AMAZING
1st GLACIAL WATER
Perito Moreno, Santa Cruz Province
So clean and refreshing. At 4 degrees C, best water ever after an hour of trekking!
REALLY GOOD
2nd WHOLE FOODS MARKET SPARKLING SUMMER STRAWBERRY NATURALLY FLAVORED MINERAL WATER
Whole Foods Market, New York
Got a whole qt. of flavored sparkling water to quench my seemingly unquenchable thirst here. Not bad for $1.50.
3rd SPINDRIFT BLOOD ORANGE TANGERINE SPARKLING WATER
Whole Foods Market, New York
I’ll never say no to anything blood orange with a throat as parched as mine.
4th WAIĀKEA HAWAIIAN VOLCANIC WATER
Jacques Torres Chocolate - Dumbo, New York
BRIEF: “Completely isolated from the rest of the world, Waiākea® offers purity in its ultimate form. Located just outside the quiet town of Hilo and surrounded by rich, bio-diverse forest preserves, a deep well source sits at the eastern base of the Mauna Loa volcano, one of the purest environments on Earth. Originating atop the volcano as rain and snowmelt – the water slowly filters through thousands of feet of porous, volcanic rock, re-emerging at the surface as refreshingly crisp, naturally alkaline water. As keiki o ka 'āina, or “children of the land,” it is our responsibility to protect the natural resources of Hawai‘i – and as protectors of our pristine source, we promise to responsibly share Waiākea with you, never depleting our precious gift.” SOOT’S TAKE: I’ll take clean, fresh water wherever and whenever it’s offered!
5th FRUIT-INFUSED WATER
Residence Inn by Marriott Newark Elizabeth/Liberty International Airport, Elizabeth
This was such a WELCOME relief from a arduous journey out of Liberty! 😮‍💨 #refreshrefreshrefresh
6th PUREWATER PURE DRINKING WATER
UOB Privilege Banking Centre - Parkway Parade, Singapore
Made from FSC-Certified paperboard (not the water) and a bio-based cap made from sugar cane. It is tasteless and refreshing as water should be.
7th SCHWEPPES INFUSED NATURAL MINERAL WATER WITH BLOOD ORANGE & MANGO
Coles Ramsgate, Ramsgate
None of the sometimes sickly sweetness of many sodas. Just what I need in my dehydrated state.
8th CAPE GRIM NATURAL WATER
Hahndorf Hill Winery, Hahndorf
Cape Grim bottled water is the only bottled rain water in the world that is pure enough to be approved by the health departments of the US, the EU, Australia and Japan. It is so clean that it cannot be used to produce beer as its purity inhibits the fermentation process. Cape Grim is situated in the remote NW region of Tasmania which is recognized by governments and scientists that's having the cleanest/purest air on earth. The water originates in the pristine air of Cape Grim which travels 16,000 km across the great southern ocean from Antarctica without crossing land or contaminants of any sort. When it approaches Cape Grim, the heat of the land turns the air into rain. Rain water is harvested only on days of the absolute highest air quality. In this case, it is used as a palate Cleanser for ChocoVino.
11th ALL GOOD RED GRAPEFRUIT SPARKLING WATER
Milkbar & Co., Mount Martha
Sharp, organic red grapefruit and sparkling Wailuku water.
12th LACROIX CÚRATE MELÓN POMELO
Giant @ IMM, Singapore
Light and refreshing. I like this one.
14th 白樺の水 (国産) WATER OF WHITE BIRCH “JAPAN”
Fujiya 1935, Osaka
I’m still trying to figure out what this was exactly. It was mildly sweet and interesting.
15th CHLOROPHYLL WATER
cafe, Kuala Lumpur
Alkaline water, chlorophyll 😳😳😳
PRETTY GOOD
17th SHAW'S NATURAL SPRING WATER
Shelburne Farms, Shelburne
Crucial on a sweltering day. Also grateful i didn't get E. coli @ VERMONT CHEESEMAKERS FESTIVAL 2015.
21st MOUNT FRANKLIN LIGHTLY SPARKLING PASSIONFRUIT
Coles West Ryde, West Ryde
This satisfies my desire for lightly flavored sparkling water but I think I prefer Schweppes’ blood orange & mango version.
22nd KANGAROO ISLAND PURE RAIN
Clifford's Honey Farm, Kingscote
"Cold frontal systems form over Antarctica carrying the purest rain droplets within the planet's cleanest air. As it reaches land, the rain is released onto the wildly pristine countryside of Kangaroo Island. Cloud distilled, this water has a superior virginality score (nitrate content) of just 0.005 and a naturally alkalizing pH of 7.9." Well, it sure as hell tastes better than the rain water coming out of the hotel's tap.
23rd ÁGUA
Paco y lola, Pasto
To hydrate with in my dehydrated state.
JUST OK
27th DIAMOND WATER
Flight Club, Sepang
Looks like Rosemary-infused, tastes like tap.
