FAQ
Is Poland Spring water just tap water?
No, it's sourced from natural springs in Maine, which are protected underground aquifers, and undergoes minimal treatment for safety while preserving natural minerals.
Does it contain any minerals or electrolytes?
It has trace amounts of naturally occurring minerals like calcium and magnesium, but not enough to contribute significantly to daily intake or provide electrolyte benefits.
Why does it taste different from other bottled waters?
The taste comes from its specific geological source—the bedrock in Maine filters the water, giving it a distinct, crisp profile compared to waters from limestone or other regions.
