    Overview

    San Pellegrino is one of the world's most recognized sparkling mineral waters, bottled at source in the foothills of the Italian Alps since 1899. Its water travels through limestone and volcanic rock for around 30 years before reaching the surface, picking up the calcium, magnesium and sulfate profile that gives it its distinctive structure.
