Saratoga Spring Water Bottles, 12 Pack – Still Bottled Water – Recycled PET Plastic Bottles – 28 Fl Oz

From the picture you could easily be convinced that these are glass bottles... Wanting to try something new and waiting for my Evian or FIJI water to come, I decided to give this brand a try. 6 cents per fl.oz. instead of my usual 5 cents. Not a huge deal, til you're buying a whole case, but i digress. Bought them to be a bit adventurous. The appearances certainly lead towards a higher-end feeling brand. Came decently packaged, though several of my bottles weren't perfect in their looks - a few had permanent indentation marks from where they'd been smushed together in warehousing and/or in shipment. No amount of prodding, squeezing, or light crushing would change their mind. They had a permanent inwards circle mark. But, it's a water bottle - not a Bugatti. Just figured I'd put this out there for anyone who's looking to impress clients by having this in a lobby or at a conference with high-end / high-class VIPs that expect perfection. As I said, I normally get Evian or Fiji. The water tastes about the same -- You generally wouldn't attribute water as having a taste, but with these natural spring and mountain spring waters sometimes they do. This water has a decent refreshing quality to it. The bottle is a perfect size for backpacking or just drinking throughout the day casually. It hydrates you well, and looks great while doing it! Recently I've been on the healthy water purification path, and got a ZeroWater filtration kit, with Total dissolved solids (TDS) water tester. TDS are organic and inorganic materials, such as metals, minerals, salts, and ions dissolved in water. My usual home well water generally tests to about a 120 PPM. This water from Saratoga tested to 128 PPM. The water is good, and well within safe limits - but it isn't completely and perfectly 100% pure. But, that's okay! Generally you want some minerals and naturally occurring vitamins in your water anyways - it's what gives it that unique flavor across different brands. I have no complaints about this water at all.

★★★★★ Excellent Premium Spring Water I've tried many bottled water brands, and Saratoga is definitely one of my favorites. The water has a crisp, clean, and smooth taste with no unpleasant aftertaste. The 6-pack is convenient for home, work, or taking on the go. The bottles are sturdy, easy to carry, and the quality is consistent every time. If you're looking for refreshing spring water with a premium taste, this is an excellent choice. I will definitely purchase it again and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys high-quality bottled water.

Ok, so I enjoy fancy water! This water is refreshing, who cares how much it costs? Water is Water to most folks, but if you drink gallons like I do, taste is truly primary. I don’t want to taste sand, minerals, bitterness or aftertaste. Smooth, crispy and clean. That’s what this brand does well.

Where I am from this is called some bougie water, but I love the taste. I do not like the sparkling but the “still” water is perfect. Even my young son love this water the quality of it the blue bottle appearance and how refreshing it is and the taste is top-tier.

This is my favorite bottled water! First the blue bottle is stunning, second the taste is great and lastly, it’s just smooth and quality for a decent price. I’m subtracting one star due to difficulty in opening a bottle in a recent batch. It really tore my hand up causing a couple blisters. The water is that good that I was not giving up trying to open that bottle!

Great tasting water, at a nice cost. Will order the glass bottles next time so I don’t get microplastics in my drinking water.

This water tastes so much like the well water I had at my up-north home! Refreshing! Tastes like water not the damn bottle it's in!

I love this water. I do wish they were glass. The ones I got in the past were, but I didn't read that these were plastic. So my next order, I'll have to fix that. If ordering 1 12 pack is heavy, 2 is going to hurt your back. Honestly, I find heavy items are a good sign, so that's not a complaint, just a warning. I ordered 2 12 packs abd they were in 1 box. If people could see me opening the box from on my porch, they would have laughed. I have read Saratoga is 1 of the best bottled water. So, with the best comes price. Most of the time you get what you pay for. You do with this. It is well worth it. I have not tried plain sparkling water, so I'm not sure on how that is. Both got great reviews. I love the shape and color of the bottle. I'm sure most don't care about that, but I collect bottles and in the sunlight, the glass bottle are so pretty. And fancy looking. It looks light wine. :) But 28 oz is great. I drink it throughout my day. And being the shape it is, it's much easier to use. They don't crinkle or get mis-shapen. With others, you drop it and you'd think someone ran it over. But the plastic this is made with, it's very durable. I will recommend and buy again, just will in the glass bottles. I'm trying to go plastic free. It's hard, but babysteps. Not much more to say other than try this.
