Many people now prefer bottled water versus tap water for a variety of reasons. They may not like the taste, smell, or colour of tap water. Others are worried about their health and see bottled water as more natural, pure, and a healthier alternative to tap water. But not all bottled waters have the same qualities.

Highland Spring..." Reassuringly Pure "

Highland Spring is low in minerals, salts and nitrates and is bottled from a protected underground source where nothing is added or removed and the product is untouched by human hand. Only carbon dioxide is added to create Highland Spring Sparkling water.

In 2001, Highland Spring achieved organic status for its catchment area, granted by the Soil Association.

• The Ochil Hills in Perthshire, Scotland is an area of outstanding natural beauty
• Layers of red sandstone and basalt formed these ancient hills around 400 million years ago and they provide a natural filter for the fresh rainwater, which falls on the undulating heather clad slopes
• The rainwater takes up to 15 years to reach the point deep below the hills and from which Highland Spring derives its source
• On its way, the water passes through countless intricate cavities, absorbing wholesome minerals.
• The Water is gently pumped to the surface from boreholes via stainless steel pipelines 60m below ground
• The water comes from a protected natural underground source under the Ochil Hills where no farming, agricultural spraying, building or habitation is permitted within the 2000 acre catchment area
• The land has been kept free from pesticides and pollution for over 20 years.
