Our Water

Famously known as the birthplace of ‘The English Spa’ and the home of British bottled water; Harrogate is a wonder of the natural world, boasting 88 mineral springs, all hydro-geologically unique1. Our source has been specifically chosen for its water quality and mineral composition.

Our Source

It takes years for our water to filter through layers of rock until it reaches the level from which we abstract, some 50 metres below ground. During its journey our water becomes naturally enriched with minerals to create a refreshing, perfectly balanced drink.

The World’s Finest Water

Harrogate has consistently been awarded ‘Best in Class’, taking gold at The British Bottlers Institute Tasting Awards since 2011. Harrogate Water was voted ‘The World’s Finest Sparkling Water’ at the International Water Tasting Awards, Berkeley Springs, USA.

Quality Guaranteed

Our water is abstracted and bottled at source, in our facility on Harlow Moor Road in central Harrogate. Our on-site micro‑lab continually monitors production to support consistent quality standards.

Tasting Notes

Our water is characterised by an exceptionally clean and well-rounded taste. It is rich in minerals, providing a subtly sweet flavour and hydrating mouth-feel. A neutral pH level makes it perfect for pairing with food as it will not cloud the palate.

An optimal balance of minerals ensures a refreshing and hydrating water, not drying like some mineral-stripped waters. It is virtually absent of contaminants such as nitrates, which can give water a processed, synthetic taste. Our sparkling water benefits from a very gentle carbonation, providing an easy drinkability and making it the ideal accompaniment to fine dining or enjoying on its own.
