Sparkling Mineral Water
across 2 reviews
4.0/5
mixed
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.

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
