Since 1894, Acqua Filette has been bottling and selling water with unique properties. The water has won numerous awards and is recognised not only as a therapeutic and health-supporting water, but also as an exclusive product chosen by prestigious hotels, restaurants and wine bars in Italy and the world.

The crystal-clear water comes from the Guarcino Mountains, 900 metres above sea level, far from industry, traffic, polluted fields and pastures. The first historical records of the spring date back to 400 BC, when the spring was dedicated to the goddess Venus because its water was considered miraculous. In 23 AD, the Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder extolled the qualities of Filette water in his work ‘Naturalis Historia’.

Filette water offers new sensations and a softness never experienced before. The water is particularly gentle thanks to the perfect balance of mineral salts and the complete absence of contaminants. Unlike other water brands, it does not alter the sense of taste, but enhances the essence of food, wine and champagne. For this reason, it is considered by sommeliers and chefs as a ‘tasting water’. What's more, Filette water is made up of extremely small clusters (the groups of molecules that make up water), which allows it to better penetrate tissues, purify them and restore the balance of minerals within them.

Water containing only 0.2 mg/l of nitrate and 224 mg/l of solids, with a low sodium content and no arsenic whatsoever, is considered to have unique properties, with a balance that is very rare. It is one of the cleanest waters in the world. Compared to the two most well-known waters, Acqua Filette's water can be considered 18 times cleaner than Evian's water (nitrates 3,7 mg/L) and 15 times cleaner than San Pellegrino's water (2,9 mg/L). pH 7,75.

After discovering the unique properties of the water, it was decided to focus on the premium segment. For a luxurious and elegant representation of the water, a classic Bordeaux wine bottle was chosen, with a satin label with a distinctive “F” in silver foil. The smaller 470ml bottle has been modelled on the finest English gin bottles and is designed for venues where the perfectly balanced flavour of Acqua Filette can accompany a glass of fine wine, a sophisticated spirit, a sophisticated cocktail or just a pleasant conversation. A unique format that will positively surprise even the most demanding palates.

Made in Italy, the water is making its way into some of the world's finest hotels, restaurants and bars. Today, the producer exports to 30 different countries around the world. Acqua Filette is proud to work with hotels such as Mandarin, Four Seasons and Bulgari, as well as award-winning restaurants such as La Pergola (3 Michelin stars, Chef Heinz Beck), Del Pescatore (3 Michelin stars), Dani Maison (2 Michelin stars), Shalai (Michelin star), and many more.

The brand is part of the Water like Wine project, which aims to give water, the most precious resource for humanity and the planet as a whole, the same value and importance that the market gives to wine and champagne. As cleanliness is a key value for Acqua Filette, and in order to protect the Earth and the water, the manufacturer has completely abandoned plastic containers in favour of glass, which produces 100% of the water's organoleptic properties.

The world's water ambassadors are the famous sommelier Alessandro Scorsone and the award-winning chef Gianfranco Pascucci.

Dissolved solids indicate the amount of mineral salts in the water. The National Association of Biologists has defined that oligomineral water is considered to be optimal when the dry matter content is between 200 and 300 mg/l. Such water contains neither too much nor too little mineral salts.

Nitrates. The presence of nitrates in water is an indication of groundwater contamination, which may arise from fertilisers and naturally occurring nitrates. Nitrates can combine with proteins to form nitrosamines, carcinogenic derivatives.

Sodium. With less than 5mg/l, water is suitable for low-sodium diets, for combating high blood pressure and water retention in the body.
