2. ALL local water bottles (Kuwaiti) are from the same source which is the ministry of electricity and water and ALL of them are PURIFIED water which mean they are simply ozone treated and then they add the remaining minerals (To their taste) (i.e. Aquafina, Arwa, Aqua gulf, Abraj)

3. Regional Water are either from the gulf countries, mainly UAE, KSA and Oman and MOSTLY are similar to the local ones OR even WORSE (Sorry to say that but that’s the truth, also to be fair some of them are treating it good) to be fair also, some are from deep wells, but you wouldn’t know how was is treated and bottled!! (Masafi, Hana, others)… The second region is Lebanon and the levant area, that area has good water (Simply because they have rivers and mountains, and there are good products (freshing products), but my concern would be botteling, Quality Assurance, and certifications.

4. The Last Category is the Premier products.. and due to the fact that the Kuwaiti market is rather small and the customers who are loyal to this category is small, you don’t find many products available in Kuwait in this category (due to it’s price) (since the distrubitors can’t afford to run their operation with low volumes)….Saying that, in this category, you can rely on it’s quality and botteling (Although some glitches could happen every several years, similar to what happend almost 10 years ago with Perrier when they’ve found some traces of gasoline in it) … In this category the MOST Famous brand is Evian, which could be found in everywhere in the world, but in my openion it’s reputation is much bigger than it’s taste and flavour !!!!!! and me personaly I would prefer Volvic on it (Although both products are from the same parent company which are DENON)… The other player in Kuwait is Volvic, which is also french and has a nice tase and relatively cheaper than Evian (with a better taste)…. The Last player in Kuwait I consider is Highland Spring (Scottish product), Low Sodium, the only certified Organic product and as you can see from the table on top, it’s the cheapest of the premier products in Kuwait (I do love their Still and Sparkling taste, very fresh and not heavy) and mostly you can find it in every Starbucks and British Airways aircraft :)

5. All the others premier products, do carry the same quality and bottleing assurance, but the problem is (Which happened to me several times), once you like a product and start to get used to it, you don’t find it anymore!!!! and it’s much more expensive than the main 3 players in Kuwait… Saying that, it’s always nice to buy a new bottle and try a different taste every know and then…..

I hope my “long comment” would benefit all of you here…. I do hope all of you do enjoy drinking water the same way I do :)
