Brilliant and crystal-clear, on the palate it is pleasingly soft and balanced, with tonic, refreshing and persistently smooth taste sensation. It is excellent with light foods that have subtle yet intense olfactory-gustative qualities. This is the perfect edition to a fine dining experience. Acqua Panna 250ml R24 Acqua Panna 500ml R37 Acqua Panna 750ml R45 San Pellegrino S. Pellegrino mineral water gushes out from a thermal spring at 700 meters, right in the heart of the Italian Alps. It is the result of an extraordinary combination of exceptionally pure water and minerals. The beneficial properties of this spring water have been known since most ancient times.

Pellegrino can be found on the tables of the world’s leading restaurants. It is the ambassador of the Italian style;“What ever language you speak, live in Italian”.
