Frequently Asked Questions

At Pearl Water, we’re proud to offer 100%, artesian mineral water that’s as rich in history as it is in minerals. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions about Pearl Water, where it comes from, and what makes it so special.

Artesian water comes from a unique type of underground aquifer. Unlike other water sources, an artesian aquifer is sandwiched between non-porous layers of rock, which creates natural pressure. When a well taps into this aquifer, the water rises to the surface through pressure. Pearl Water is drawn from an aquifer, deep beneath the Pearl Brewery in San Antonio.

Pearl Water is sourced from a single artesian well located in front of Stable Hall, right in the heart of Pearl in San Antonio, Texas. This well taps into a natural aquifer that has been supplying water to this region for centuries. The water filters through layers of limestone, picking up minerals and electrolytes that give it its pure, smooth taste.

The taste of Pearl Water comes from its journey through natural limestone. As it flows through these underground rock layers, it absorbs minerals and electrolytes, giving it a distinctive, refreshing flavor that reflects the land from which it springs. We layer on a filtering process that preserves the minerals and ensures Pearl Water is free of contaminants, delivering a pure, delicious experience with every sip.

Yes! Pearl Water is committed to sustainability. We use less than 1% of the water from our artesian well, ensuring that this precious resource is protected for future generations. Additionally, our water is bottled in environmentally friendly aluminum bottles, which are 100% recyclable and help reduce plastic waste.

Pearl Water is part of the rich legacy of the Pearl Brewery in San Antonio.
