BORJOMI Sparkling Natural Mineral Water, with Natural Gut-Healthy Minerals, Naturally Alkaline, Crispy and Bold Taste, PET Bottles, 25.3 fl oz, 6 Pack

Great mineral water with some caveats for the amateur drinker. This is an excellent water for the connoisseur — probably not for the beginner. If you only like the taste of Pellegrino — this is a very different. part of the attraction of different sparkling waters is — they all taste different depending on particular characteristics/qualities of the earth in that region of the world. Pellegrino is a great, crisp, refreshing everyday sparkling water. Gerolsteiner has about 6-7 times the amount of dissolves solids than Pellegrino — which is why many people don't like Gerolsteiner and find it too heavy — and it is like drinking liquid rock in the best way — lots of calcium and magnesium. To give you an idea — Borjomi has 2 to 2.5 times as much dissolved mineral content as Gerolsteiner. And as much as 5-7 times as a bottle of Pellegrino. Content wise — Gerolsteiner has a lot more calcium and magnesium than Pellegrino — whereas Borjomi has a lot more sodium and bicarbonate so that gives it a slightly salty tinge. So, this is a VERY highly mineral water that is not for everyone. However, it is not just salt water — it does have a slightly salty tinge but is it an equivalent to just drinking water with table salt? No. There are some very real benefits to this water but it is not a light crisp water like Pellegrino that you can drink all day. I love Borjomi, it is a terrific water, but (same as Gerolsteiner but even more so), be mindful that you are drinking water with VERY high mineral levels — and be mindful with that. I love Borjomi but you cannot drink as much of it as you can with Pellegrino. It's like comparing whiskey and beer. So, just be mindful of what you are buying. It is definitely not something to be swigged mindlessly all day like you can with some other water. But I do like the taste and I do find it makes me feel good. Just don't expect anything like lighter everyday waters. Expect a minerally taste and a water that has some of the highest mineral content on the market (much higher sodium and bicarbonate) and you will be well prepared.

Minerals are very potent in this Italian water and taste very natural indeed. Satisfying and fulfilling water.

Nice bottles. Low to medium carbonation. Tastes like public park, drinking fountain water and not a nice park. Wouldn't buy again

I have been trying a number of different waters. This one was recommended for digestive issues and it is a winner! It did take a minute to get used to the mineral taste but now I am used to it. One downside is the higher sodium content so I trade off with another non-sparkling water with a low sodium content for balance.

Not Essentuki 17,but great alternative

This water I remember from my childhood. And would never forget my trip to Georgia 🇬🇪 many years ago when we had a tour at Borjomi factory. So quality and taste is the same as old “Soviet” Borjomi. On my student years Borjomi was first aid when to treat hangover 🤣Still is😂 The funniest thing it’s delivery. Sometimes I have a feeling that this guys are sitting somewhere next door with boxes ready to throw under my door and just waiting when I’ll press the button “order”🤣 . I bought this water 14 times from this seller. And always delivery was literally in few hours (Brooklyn ny)

Not for everyone’s taste! It takes getting used to. It is a real natural mineral water and it tastes mineralized. I read other people’s reviews where people complain that the water is too mineralized. If anything, I would say that it is less mineralized than I remember from visiting Georgia some years ago. This particular batch appears somewhat watered down. PROS: a famous Borjomi brand of the Sparkling Natural Mineral Water. Health benefits, provided it is a real Borjomi. CONS: arrived absolutely flat! considering that CO2 is added it seems rather hard to understand. Definitely extra filtered; Possibly watered down. Expensive. In the former Soviet Union, the price was less than 20 cents per 500ml glass bottle.

Almost as if it’s a salty or metal taste very disappointing
