Börse Express – Gaisbergwasser from Salzburg taste world champion again
Salzburg startup achieves two gold medals at international blind tasting in Los Angeles
After the sensational gold medal for “Gaisberg still” at the international blind tasting of the American Fine Water Society last year, the small Salzburg startup “Gaisbergwasser” was even able to expand its success this year: at this year’s blind tasting, which took place on August 27, 2022 in Los Angeles , 5 internationally renowned water sommeliers chose both “Gaisberg still” and “Gaisberg sparkling” as taste winners (main category “balanced mineralization”).
“Following the gold medal last year, double gold 2022 is of course the icing on the cake. Due to the numerous inquiries from abroad, especially from overseas, you could of course make a lot out of the brand. But I’m more hoping for our quality-conscious target group in upscale gastronomy – and the hotel industry in Austria and abroad, so that we can continue to bottle regionally and sustainably, in limited quantities, and still be able to run our small company successfully,” says Dr. Christian Hetz, founder of the startup.
Gaisberg water is bottled in very manageable quantities and – unlike industrially bottled water – with a lot of manual effort and currently supplies primarily to the Austrian premium gastronomy. In the new aluminum edition (“reusable instead of just reusable”), the product can also be ordered in the company’s online shop.
