...rest. I had never drunk Highland Spring until lately when I saw it in a water machine and thought I'd give it a try.
So, firstly it comes in a 500ml bottle which is tall and thin, it nips in, in the middle so that the bottle is much easier to hold. I don't know if I'm just stupid but the top of the bottle has a blue lid which at first I found very difficult to open but eventually did pull off and then it just made the water come out through a smaller ... ...this banner it has the Highland Spring logo which is in a crown shape to me and of course it has a thistle on top of this keeping to all of the Scottish traditions, it isn't the most original logo design but I still like the cooler blues, purples and greens they have gone for in the banner. On the label it also says the water has been certified organic and then it tells you all the usual facts, calorie free etc. Highland Spring achieved the status ...

Advantages: good in times of water shortage or out on a hot day Disadvantages: tastes like tap water
...that got to do with Highland Spring water, well they burst a water pipe and left the houses here with no water for 5 hours. We had no notice to draw off water for things which wasnt too bad but we have a dog who of course at that moment had decided that he had drank all his water in his dish and the only thing on this earth he wanted was a drink of water. Although the water was everywhere it was a dirty brown colour. If it was just coming out the ... ...person. We bought Highland Spring - that was all they had - for 89p for 1.5litre. The first thing I was surprised to notice was that it had a sell by date on it. This is Jan. 2010. I thought I might as well taste it to see if I could tell any difference. We have very hard water here and it is drinkable and never had a problem with it. On tasting I thought that it did not taste any different from our tap water. The day after the water was on again ...

Advantages: Drinking water is good for you! Disadvantages: Can be costly buying bottled water all the time.
...100% Scottish mineral water by Highland Spring on my desk at moment, I usually always have at least a few bottles of mineral water in my fridge at a time, and when at college or work placement drink my way through on average about 15 bottles per week. The bottle I have is a screw cap bottle but it is also available in the very popular sports top, with a flip top lid, Handy for kids!
I much prefer the still water to the sparkling water, as this tastes ... ...which I found on the Highland Springs (HS) website….
Water is essential to life, The human body is made up of about 75% water and our brain tissue consists of up to 85% water.
It is recommended that adults drink 1.8 litres of water per day, we lose about 1.5 litres of water per day as a result of natural processes such as urinating, breathing and perspiring, So we can become dehydrated if we don't refuel our bodies!
It is recommended a child from ...

Advantages: Cheaper than othe big brands Disadvantages: Label falls off
Highland Spring mineral water- This is cheaper than many other brands, first of all, like Evian, Buxton etc. Highland Spring water is from Scotland and tastes no different from any of other brands, just as pure and tastes just as watery. Highland Spring is a rather old brand as well, so you can always trust its quality.
You can just about buy it anyway water is sold, unless you aren't in england, so you can rely on not having to pay too much.
It ... ...was terrible, all thin, but Highland Spring water's bottle is thick.
It is drunk by many people- it apparently won the name of 'Superbrand' because it's a leading brand.
I like the shape- it's not like Evian's hand shape thing, but I prefer it that way as they don't roll anywhere and the hand shapes aren't actually the shape of your hands.
For some reason, there's always some offer on the multipacks so I make sure to stock up when this happens.

Advantages: Very refreshing Disadvantages: Not a lot of flavour. It is water tho
...through plastic bottle with the Highland spring logo on sticker with all the good nutrients displayed on it that the water contains. Would you beleive it, there's Calcium and Pottasium. I did chemistry at school and I am pretty sure Pottasium is flammable but I might be getting confused with Phospurus (another volatile metal, presumbing Pottasium is indeed flammable). But never the less it is supposedly good for you.

I can't quite describe how it is so different from tap water and other brands but there's something definately in this water. Because it is beautiful. Definately a top quality water. Considering you can get it for 69p for 250ml botlle £1 in clubs. It is good value for money. You also know you are ...

Highland spring Mineral Water is naturally filtered through land certified as organic by the soil association, and drawn from a protected source.
