Product Description
Volvic water is drawn from the heart of the Parc Naturel des Volcans d’Auvergne in central France, a protected environment, free from industry and intensive farming.
Volvic water is created by rainwater that seeps very slowly underground through porous layers of puzzolana and fissured lava down to the impermeable granite bed on the old valley bottom. When it reaches the impervious bedrock, the water slowly flows downstream where it is captured over 90 meters deep.
Volvic water is drawn from deep inside the lush, green ancient volcanoes of the Auvergne in France. Specifically, taken from the Clairivic spring in the Massif Central region
Volvic, as the name implies, has a volcanic geological basis, most evident in its 30 mg/l level of Silica, one of the world’s more potent mineral water sources for this element. The perfectly neutral pH of 7.0, and overall low 109 mg/l total mineralization, makes Volvic a special water, truly unique in its chemistry. At 6.3 mg/l, the Nitrate level is a little higher, but in the case of Volvic, this slight excess is probably offset by the water’s virtues.
