International Waters

By Ratha Tep

There’s been a deluge of new bottled waters—each with its own special spiel.

Via Natural

Bottled from a spring in Sandovalina, this water has a nicely rounded flavor.

The most pure-tasting bottle we tried; from the Glenlivet whisky house’s water source.

Filtered through layers of volcanic rock in Fuji, this water has faint mineral notes.

This supersmooth water from Paarl claims to be the same pH level as the human body.

The source for this clean-tasting water: a lava rock-covered spring.

Known for its flask-shaped bottle, this fresh-tasting water comes from New York’s Catskill Mountains.
