Sourced from nearly 1,000 feet within the Monti di Deu or the “Mountain of God,” the purest and most compact granite filters and enriches the clean and well-balanced water that is Smeraldina, assuming the role of a natural production plant.

“Time Out Market is globally and locally known for its variety of excellent food and drink options, so this is a perfect partnership for our award-winning water,” said Giuseppe Pinna, Vice President at Smeraldina. “We look forward to introducing our ‘blue zones’ water to Time Out Market customers across these three cities.”
