The descent
A journey measured in millennia.
240m
Filtered through ancient rock.
Over thousands of years it seeped slowly down through layer upon layer of stone, filtered by nature alone and taking on a subtle, balanced mineral character.
610m
Sealed away from the world.
Deep underground it settled into a confined artesian aquifer, protected from the surface and held in its original, untouched state.
