Bottled Water
Hi Everyone!!!
I went to the grocery store to buy bottled water and was faced with a variety of choices. And I chose the wrong one. I bought a 6-pack of "Gulfa". The first bottle didn't taste all that great and I thought it was because it wasn't in the fridge long enough to get cold. Today, I almost feel nauseous after drinking it.
Back home I knew what brands I liked and which I didn't...love Naya, hate Dasani...
Anyway, which brands do you like and dislike? Do you find some taste like they could be tap water?

I usually drink fossile water from Antarctica. 100 million years old, untouched by humans and only containing a little pea from the dinosaurs.
since then they have stopped..
The best water which we are drinking since past 20 yrs is 'Masafi' (Mineral Water from UAE)
beer...
i dislike rayyan..n like nestle
Even Qatar Petroleum stopped using Rayyan water, a friend did an analysis and found it has too much salt. All the hotels use Rayyan and put their label on it, it always makes me ill and I am finding many other as well.
Get all your beer and water before it sits in 150 degree warehouse all summer...Or in the direct sun...

I buy Nestle bottle water.

I just has some! Chilled, but not too chilled. Warm, but not too warm - YES u guessed it! I just flew in from the Betty Ford Clinic on QA! I was in Business club as usual - with my Louis Vuitton hip flask filled to the brim with G&T......that gorgeous trolley dolly with the green eyes slipped into Eco for me and pulled out a dinky bottle of Rayyan! Wow she's a corker.........Yippee, Yippeee, its GORDONS gin for me!

.......i like Rayyan :o)..........
they just taste right...not too flat... and the mineral composition is balanced with low sodium.
But at home, we bring the Nestle Pure Life gallons for the dispenser...

It is also the Watar of choice in Mrs Miggins Pie shoppe on Salwa Road - now thats a true accolade if you ask moi. This a QATARI WATER so dont be so disloyal - Buy Rayyan! You know it makes sense! Hic! Yippee, Yippeee, its GORDONS gin for me!

Purified tap water? I may as well buy a Brita filter system and fill it with tap water. I guess I should look into getting a water cooler. But then how do I know from where that water is coming?

Aquafina is best in taste wise. Rayyan's taste also not bad.
Its the ONLY real mineral water in Qatar and makes great ice cubes for the G&T Hic! Yippee, Yippeee, its GORDONS gin for me!

I hate Rayyan, it used to be the popular bottled water back in the days, however has anyone seen where they store these bottles? They are kept out in the sun all day in a yard somewhere next to jaidah flyover if i'm not mistaken or perhaps those were just the distributors.

Its from K.S.A., underground mineral water
Its very smooth usaly I get it from "Food Palace " in AL-Saad St.

Rayyan's my favourite. Locally source, and tastes good.
Evian, Highland, Nestle...
Purified water, they use it on car batteries too
Rayyan water gives me heartburn. But it was all we could find for our water cooler here at our villa.
Motherhood...The hardest job you'll ever love! : )
I grew up drinking gulfa here in doha. of course we all we got different "tastes":) but it tastes ok to me. now rayyan, thats one i usually avoid (except on a hot summer day and the grocery store hasnt got any other brand).. But at present we go for a box of masafi, tastes better, nice bottle-packaging too:) pricing is alright, at around QR16 for the box having 12 bottles (..or was it 8?)

Spring Water
Purified Water
Mineral Water
Sparkling Bottled Water

Well Water
Its all a matter of taste..
i would go for the Gleneagles Natural Spring water. Collected from the rainfilled valley of Gleneagles. Untouched by human hands or scottish sporans, the water has that clarity and sparkle and a hint of aroma from the haggi splashing through during the warm summer months.
A little expensive, but worth it..
Evain is naive backwards......is that a message?
smile lots laugh more
Nestle Pure LIfe.. i got one right in front of me with tat family image of father mother and one kid in the middle... but why are they all RED ??
hmmm might be REd Indians....:)
Aside from the taste, its important to check the mineral content of the bottled water.
Some brands contains high level of this, especially the sodium, which may put us at high risk of acquiring kidney diseases.
Ever tried Nestlé Pure Life?

i like HIGHLAND mineral water. but i dont like the price for each bottle 1.5L :D
Install RO System and say bye bye to bottled water

Rayyan water is also Fine....
The difference we have in the market are Treated Mineral water & Purified Drinking Tap water. Underground mineral water is natural and have all the necessary minerals
Aquafina and Dasana are purified tap water. I like Masafi, Rayyan water is the worst, don't drink unless you want to get ill.
i like sohat water
You can't teach experience...
And has new lable on the bottle...
I suspect you got some old old water...
If it sits in heat one summer it gets nasty...
The Gulfa I was getting back in Dec was quite nasty...
You can't teach experience...
But I drink Gulfa from the base cause I get it free...
You can't teach experience...
What brand do you get?

Veni, Vedi, Visa! ~ I came, I saw, I shopped!
its not that...its just not for me...the pH of water here is exactly 7...i find that a little displeasing, i like my water a little basic and so i choose something else...i'm sure some people like the water here just fine.
I don't like Evian...I think I saw Aquafina, which is okay. So what I hear you saying is that the local bottled water is not that great?

You can't have a light without a dark to stick it in!
you're right there is a different taste to these waters that are packaged in the gulf...i'm not saying they're good or bad, they're just not for me. i'm more used to my lebanese water and thats all i buy from now on...try to find a brand you know and love and stick with it...carrefour have a good collection...good luck!
