The village of Vilajuïga very close to the Costa Brava has been the proud custodian of its sought after waters since 1904. This naturally sparkling water is one of the best in the world.
A naturally carbonated mineral water (no added carbon dioxide) originating in the county of Alt Empordà, in the heart of Cap de Creus Natural Park where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean. It is a place where the winds of the tramuntana have sculpted the rocks over centuries, and where the rain lends a special charisma to such a distinctive landscape.
The aquifer that holds the water is located at a depth of some 70 metres, and is connected to the mountains of the Serra de la Verdera. The natural bubbles and health-giving minerals are the result of a journey of more than 30 years, which begins when the rain falls onto the hills around Cap de Creus Natural Park. The water permeates through the subsoil, absorbing minerals such as magnesium, sodium, calcium, lithium and bicarbonates, which give the water its natural, fizzing bubbles.
Since 1904, the water’s properties have made it a unique yet scarce resource, which in turn means it is highly valued by those who appreciate the exclusive character of nature’s bounty. This unique character makes our water the ideal complement to the experience of fine dining: not only is it lightly sparkling, and therefore not filling, but it also pairs superbly with good wines and cavas thanks to its smoothness and organoleptic structure.
