Origins
Mineral water comes from natural springs or wells, pure and rich in minerals. Unlike tap water that receives different treatments before human consumption, mineral water is bottled directly from the source, without adding any chemical elements. It only goes trough a physical process of filtration to ensure maximum purity.
Mineral Waters can be classified according to their origin.
Meteorological: Produced by rain, snow and de-icing.
Juvenile: Those that see daylight when surfacing.
Fossil: Formed from sediments deposited on the sea floor.
Mixed: Composed from a mixture of youth, meteoric and fossil water.
