Reviewers praise
  • Clean, refreshing taste distinct from tap water
  • Subtle carbonation that does not burn while drinking
  • Glass bottle presentation
Reviewers push back
  • A newer processed version exists that uses UV sterilization and activated carbon filters
  • The processed variant cannot legally be called natural mineral water in France
  • Regulatory ambiguity around sourcing transparency for the newer variant
Reviewers agree Perrier delivers clean, refreshing taste with subtle carbonation and a mineral character that stands out from tap water, though the brand now includes a newer processed variant marketed differently.
— best for: People who want a subtle sparkling water with mineral character and prefer glass bottles over aggressive carbonation.

On Sparkling Mineral Water: One reviewer focused on taste and found the minerals clearly detectable; the other questioned whether the mineral character in the newer variant justifies claims given processing

I started drinking SPINDRIFT sparkling waters when I eliminated soda from my life (ie. C*ke, P*psi, etc.) I've tried quite a few of the SPINDRIFT flavors, and this is by far one of my favorites. This is an unsweetened sparkling water, and not even naturally sweet. I don't care for sweet sparkling waters at all, so if you're like me, this fits the bill perfectly. It has a wonderful light citrus tas Razor1331 · Target

I really enjoyed Maison Perrier Ultimate Unflavoured Sparkling water. The carbonation is strong and crisp without being overwhelming, and the bubbles last longer than many others sparkling waters I’ve tried. It tastes very clean and pure, with no aftertaste or artificial notes. There’s no smell, which I appreciate in an unflavoured option. Halyna F · influenster.com
