The Gulp War

Nevertheless, the competition is going strong after nearly three decades, and is now billed as “the Academy Awards of Water.”

Check out this first hand account from a water judge, as he takes the plunge and evaluates over a hundred different waters submitted by cities, towns and bottlers from around the globe.  He also learns about why water is becoming increasingly more precious.
