More then 65% of consumers in the US prefer Still waters with their food. Still or flat water works well with every food. However, other FineWaters Balance designations, especially Effervecent and Light should be tried by people who claim they don't like sparkling water.

With Still waters, we can engage in a "varietal" dialogue as "low mineral content water", "high mineral content water" "distilled", "spring water". "glacier water" and other differentiating factors as many other unique sources for still water become available.

Temperature: 54°F | 12°C
Stemware: If water is your main drink with a meal, you need appropriate glassware and it should not be a water goblet or tumbler. The appropriate stemware helps add to the feeling of fine dining and provides a more elegant and festive glass for toasts. Leading manufacturers produce special glasses for water that fit any occasion.
Food: Still water is perfect with any kind of food, but a little variety can go a long way. Very important with Still water is the temperature. It is important to resist the temptation to pour it over ice. Absolutely no ice please. If you prefer your water with ice, make sure the ice is made with the same water for full enjoyment and true taste.

TDS: Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) consist mainly of carbonates, bicarbonates, chlorides, sulfates, phosphates, nitrates, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, iron, manganese, and a few others. They do not include gases, colloids, or sediment.
Bottled water containing not less than 250 parts per million TDS may be labeled as mineral water. If the TDS content of mineral water is below 500 parts per million (ppm), or it is greater than 1,500 ppm, the statement "low mineral content" or "high mineral content" applies, respectively. Seawater. for example, has a TDS of around 34,000. High levels of minerals in water TDS can sometimes produce a metallic flavor, especially if you’re not accustomed to high mineral content waters. TDS is usually measured in ppm (parts per million) or mg/l
ph: the pH scale ranges between 0 and 14. Water with a pH of 7 is neutral and less than 7 is acidic, a pH greater than 7 is alkaline. If the water has a pH of less than 4 the water may have a sour taste. Water with a pH greater than 8.5 has an unpleasant taste.
