Advantages: Nice bottle and great tasting water

Disadvantages: expensive

Evian is a French company which produces bottled mineral water, sourced in several places near Evians Les Bains, near the shore of Lake Geneva. Evian has long been considered to be aimed at wealthier customers, as shown by the fact that that it is usually more expensive than other brands including Buxton and Volvic. However, while the price may be higher, in my opinion, the water is of higher quality and tastes better.

The Evian 500ml bottle is also unique. A major plus side of its design is the 'easy to hold' middle section of the bottle, which is partially indented to allow the user to easily pick up the bottle. This is in contrast to other brands such as Volvic, which are not as customer friendly.

Evian also seems to give a balanced composition of minerals, inclusing 80 mg/litre of Calcium, 26 mg/litre of Magnesium, and 6.5mg/litre of Sodium. Furthermore, the water has a pH of 7.8, which is slightly alkaline.

Finally, Evian also run a successful advertising campaign, based on their phrase 'live young'. Their adverts ususally contain children or babies symbolising their motto, that drinking their water will make you feel younger.

In conclusion, personally, I prefer Evian to any other brands of water mainly due to its fresher taste and easy-to-hold bottle

Summary: Fantastic bottled water
