Good idea, but just after some info for when I go on holidays etc.

If you are away for a week or two, its hard to take filters with you.

I agree. Nestle & Arrowhead taste "dusty". I don't know how else to describe it.

DISTILLED WATER IS PURE WATER. BUT HAS NO MINERAL ELECTROLYTES. YOU CAN TAKE A MINERAL SUPPLEMENT OR EAT ROOT VEGETABLES. THE WORST WATER IS AT THE EQUATOR. FIJI. WATER NEAR THE NORTH AND SOUTH POLES IS THE CLEANEST.

carbonated natural mineral water in glass bottles stored in a cool, dry, dark place keeps it's quality for the longest time.

Properly stored it is drinkable even after 10 years. The carbon keeps it fresh longer as well as the glass bottle keeps it from losing it's carbon/oxygen entering as easy as with PET bottles it would be the case.

So there you go. Find yourself some quality mineral water in glass bottles that does not cost you an arm and a leg and you are good to go.


I compared the prices for quality German Gerolsteiner mineral water in glass bottles to prices in the US.

It looks like you are paying 3-4x as much for the same water.

In Germany you can get a litre of Gerolsteiner for about 50 cents. In the US it is 3x or higher going by the little google search i did.


Either way, if you want quality water that last you over 10 years if stored properly, you are looking for properly sealed carbonated natural mineral water. (not table water)

Something you cannot control unfortunately, is if it was delivered properly to it's selling destination. Most important, no sun light exposure.

It is depending on where you go!

There are some Regulations for: Mineral Water, Drinking Water, etc

In North Europe "Drinking Water" is the "cleanest"

In South-East Asia i go with the Water from "the big Players" like
Singha & Friends
