Does Montpelier have any secrets to keeping its water tasting really good?
We don’t know why it does as good [at the competition] as it does besides it being groundwater. It’s very stable water. We don’t have to change anything that we do at the plant, ever. Maybe we’re in a really good aquifer. Williams County (where we live) is probably one of the best places around Ohio for groundwater. A lot of areas in Ohio have a lot of sulfur in their water, and we don’t have that. The aquifer that we get [water] out of is very productive and recharges very easily. Maybe the lime softening does it. Pretty much, that’s our secret. If we had one, I probably couldn’t tell you anyway, but we don’t.
