- Check out "Talking Rain" - Pure Spring Water with Essence of
- Berry. What is essence of berry? Did they let the water run
- over some berries (or leaves) when they were bottling it? Tastes
- a lot like water to me.
-
- There is another bottled water (the name escapes me) here in
- Oregon that claims to be hand-collected as snow on Mt. Hood
- in buckets and packed out by llama. My question has always been
- whether they collect the snow in front of or behind the llamas.
