What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Carbonation is lively and produces a satisfying burp-like sensation without being overwhelmingly harsh in the mouth
- The mineral character delivers a sense of refreshment that plain water does not
- Pairs well with citrus — adding lime is noted as enhancing the drinking experience
Reviewers push back
- Strong mineral taste is unfamiliar and off-putting to those expecting neutral water
- The flavour has been compared to a diluted antacid tablet, suggesting it is an acquired taste
- Carbonation level and mineral bite make it unsuitable for drinking straight if you prefer still or lightly flavoured water
San Pellegrino divides reviewers sharply — those who enjoy sparkling mineral water find it satisfying and refreshing, while those expecting plain still water are put off by its mineral taste and aggressive carbonation.
One reviewer finds the taste unpleasant and nearly undrinkable on its own; two others find it genuinely satisfying and refreshing — the mineral flavour is the core point of disagreement
