Aqua Carpatica Sparkling

Aqua Carpatica comes from springs deep within the Carpathian Mountains, a range of majestic mountains stretching 1,000 miles across Central Europe, unspoiled by civilization, untouched by agriculture and industry.

Naturally sodium free and nitrate free, this one is crisp with a heavy mouth feel. Very tough to find in the US but its out there and easily found online.

The first reference to the mineral waters was made as early as 1410, in a donation paper from the Chancellery of Alexander the Good, the king of Moldavia at that time. The Emperor Franz Joseph I of the Austro-Hungarian Empire wrote about the mineral water in his  memories: “it is a ferruginous spring with therapeutically effects and it is appreciated even by the Moldavians. It is the best mineral water spring in the region”  
The underground journey of the water traverses layers of Neogene-period volcanic rocks, absorbing carbonic acid, and eventually through dolomite -- a limestone rock which contains Calcium and Magnesium, a strata from 1 billion years ago.  The carbonic acid dissolves valuable Calcium and Magnesium from the almost insoluble dolomite and a perfect water is created.
