Award Winning Water

Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting

Every year more than 120 sparkling, bottled and municipal waters compete in the largest and longest running water tasting in the world, held in the historic spa town of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. The entries are judged by ten journalists and food critics. The contest is billed as the Academy Awards of water-tasting. Judges based their rankings on taste, odor, mouth feel, and aftertaste.

This year, Eldorado Springs' spring water achieved the Gold Medal for Best in the World! Eldorado Natural Spring Water takes immense pride in offering its customers this award-winning, naturally-delicious artesian spring water.
