Smeraldina Still Spring Water 500 ml — Case of 24, Glass

Smeraldina comes from Sardinia, where rain moves slowly through the island's old pink granite before it reaches the spring. The granite shapes the water more than any heavy mineral load does, and it is bottled at source in a faceted, emerald-tinted bottle that is easy to recognize on a table.

At 130 mg/L of total dissolved solids and a pH of 7.7, this still water is light and smooth, with a clean finish that leaves nothing chalky behind. It lets delicate flavors lead: raw fish, spring vegetables, a simple pasta with lemon and herbs.

The 500 ml size is one generous pour, right for each place setting at a dinner party or a guest room in a boutique hotel. Smeraldina Still Spring Water ships in a case of 24 glass bottles, enough for a month of dinners or one very busy weekend of hosting.
