PAWS Water has no added chlorine, just natural spring water direct from the source. Drawn from the Otakiri Aquifer in the Bay of Plenty, considered one of New Zealand’s purest deep system aquifers. PAWS Water is soft, slightly alkaline and rich in silica for a healthy coat. PAWS Water also comes in an environmentally friendly and convenient 10L Bag-in-Box, with much of the packaging made...

You may come across this question in a pub quiz one day, or when being chased down by the Chaser, maybe! Water as a compound, and water molecules are generally accepted as being made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O). But not all hydrogen atoms are created equal. Hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes, or variants. These are: Protium, Deuterium and Tritium. ‘Ordinary water’ is mostly made up of the Protium isotope, 99.99%. However, it also contains a very low percentage of the Deuterium isotope (D2O). Approximately one in 6400 hydrogen atoms is Deuterium, equivalent to...

We are pleased to announce the addition of OnePure, 320mL PET bottle, to our product range. This is an ideal smaller pack size for your bar fridge, clients, little one’s school lunch box, corporate jet or limousine service.

OnePure is naturally artesian, with moderate levels of reactive silica providing a silky flavour on the palette. It has a naturally alkaline pH of 8.0, with a water matrix of the sodium-bicarbonate type,...

Spanish natural spring water Aquas de Mondariz is celebrating 150 years. And for the first time, Mondariz is available in New Zealand from aquadeli. The Peinador brothers discovered the Gándara spring, the source of Mondariz, in 1872. Bottling began the following year, and the town quickly became a popular spa resort. In 1905, after more than thirty years being sold as mineral-medicinal water in pharmacies, the waters began to be sold commercially under the Aguas de Mondariz trademark. Healthy levels of bicarbonate and a subtle mix of other minerals make Mondariz an ideal accompaniment to any dining experience, and ideal...

We are pleased to announce the addition of Ocean to our range of locally sourced waters. Ocean is a naturally desalinated water, a unique water and the first water of its kind from New Zealand. Unlike mineral waters, championed for their mineral content, Ocean is almost devoid of minerals and by its nature a cleansing water. But unlike purified waters, Ocean has a soft, subtle and satisfying flavour on the palate. Ocean is hand harvested and produced in small batches, a truly artisan water. Fresh seawater is subjected to a natural desalination process, followed by filtration and exposure to UV...

We are pleased to announce the return of Ferrarelle. This will be the first time Ferrarelle has been available in New Zealand for some time, and so fondly remembered by many. Ferrarelle comes from the valley of the River Assano (also known as Bagni meaning baths), in the Campania region north east of Naples, in the shadow of an extinct volcano by the name of Roccamonfina. The still active Mt Vesuvius is only 60km away. Ferrarelle’s reputation was already well established in Roman times. Hannibal is reputed to have rested his troops at the source, and legend has it Ferrarelle...

Fluoride is derived from fluorite, the principal fluoride mineral in igneous rocks, formed through the solidification of magma or lava, and in some cases volcanic gases. Local councils may often add fluoride to municipal drinking water supplies as a ‘service’ to ratepayers. Excessive fluoride can cause mottling of tooth density in children. However, many health authorities champion small additions of fluoride for oral health. The recommended addition varies by market due to higher water consumption in warmer climates. In New Zealand the Ministry of Health recommends fluoride content for drinking water in the range of 0.7 to 1.0 mg/L or...

We opened our first physical water shop in 2006, At the time New Zealand had few imported mineral waters, other than the ubiquitous Italian San Pellegrino, and French brands Perrier and Evian. However, the market did have one emerging contemporary brand called Antipodes, as a nod to the British reference to countries down under. Much like New Zealand, other countries had their own emerging contemporary local brands that were gaining traction. Canada had BERG from Newfoundland, Scotland Speyside Glenlivet, and Wales Ty Nant, to name a few. Scandinavian waters were also gaining recognition on the world stage, spearheaded by VEEN...
