Fine Water Tasting Experience:
Taste with Us —
A fine water-tasting experience is an event where participants sample and learn about different types of high-quality bottled water, similar to a wine or whiskey tasting. This experience involves exploring the unique flavours, textures, and mineral compositions of various waters sourced from natural springs, glaciers, artesian wells, and other pristine sources around the world.

I recently spent 90 minutes watching six very serious people taste 107 varieties of mineral water.
Each container was hidden under a cloth bag, its contents dispensed by small pours into wine glasses. The judges swished and gazed thoughtfully into the middle distance. They dumped the excess into buckets at their feet and joked about needing a bathroom. They gave each water a score between 90 and 100, in a modified Robert Parker style.
The comparison to paint drying might seem obvious. But like a Magic Eye poster, the nuances of fine water become clear if you spend enough time with it.
Fine water — the preferred term of its growing cadre of enthusiasts — is as much like that plastic bottle of water in your car-cup holder as Château d’Yquem is to Gatorade.
The Fine Water ACADEMY has evolved as we have learned much over the last six years working with hundreds of sommelier candidates, HORECA professionals, consumers, and enthusiasts. Video lessons, online tests, and assignments were well received and highly didactical. The idea that you can conduct courses that include tastings online was new in 2018, but we established its possibility and allowed it to be successfully integrated into the curriculum. It worked.
Right now, the Fine Water Academy offers the Certified Water Sommelier Course and an Essential Water Knowledge Course designed for all professionals working with water in any form who want to stay current with emerging trends and paradigm shifts in the perception of water.
