Issue #237 What’s Inside 22 Artesian and What’s the Benefits?

Hey Y'all,

When I say “fine water,” I’m not talking about a trendy label or an imported bottle made to impress on a dinner table. I’m talking about the kind of water that tells a geological story, that nourishes you with every sip, and that reflects the land it comes from—like 22 Artesian Water, one of the most elegant, mineral-balanced waters I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting.

🌍 From Spain, With Minerals

This exceptional water comes from an artesian spring tucked high in the La Rioja region of northern Spain—a land more often associated with robust red wines than pristine water. But beneath the vineyards and valleys lies a protected aquifer, shielded for over a century by layers of natural rock, where the water undergoes slow, silent filtration. No human intervention, no artificial carbonation, no post-treatment adjustments. Just pure, naturally alkaline water.

And here’s something worth noting: The source is located 1,400 meters above sea level, meaning that what you’re drinking has been untouched by agricultural runoff or surface contamination. When it emerges, it does so under its own pressure—an authentic artesian source, not a pumped imitation.

💧 Mineral Breakdown: Let’s Get Specific

One of the reasons we love 22 Artesian isn’t just because of where it comes from—but what it brings to your glass. Here’s what you’re getting in every 880mL bottle:

  • Calcium (~60 mg/L)
    Essential for bone density, cardiac health, and nerve signaling. You’re not just hydrating—you’re reinforcing your frame.

  • Magnesium (~12 mg/L)
    This is a superstar for reducing inflammation, relaxing muscles, and supporting heart rhythm. Many of us are deficient without knowing it.

  • Sodium (15.8 mg/L)
    Rarely this low in a sparkling water! This makes 22AW Sparkling a fantastic option for those watching their salt intake or managing blood pressure.

  • Bicarbonate (~250 mg/L)
    A game-changer for gut health and digestion. It neutralizes excess stomach acid and supports a healthy pH environment.

  • Silica (~5–7 mg/L)
    The beauty mineral. Silica strengthens connective tissue, promoting glowing skin, shiny hair, and strong nails.

🔄 Health Benefits: What Makes 22 Artesian Unique

It’s not just what’s in the water—it’s how your body responds to it.

  • Alkaline pH of 7.7
    Perfectly balanced—not too basic, not acidic. This level supports metabolic health and reduces the acid load that comes from modern diets.

  • Naturally filtered over 100+ years
    No filters, no chemicals, no machines. Just the patience of time and pressure doing their quiet, perfect work.

  • Gentle yet rich
    Its medium minerality (TDS around 300 mg/L) makes it ideal for daily hydration, even for those with sensitive stomachs or on anti-inflammatory diets.

✨ Let’s Talk Texture

This is where the Sparkling version really shines. 22AW Sparkling has that rare, fine mousse—the tiny, persistent bubbles often compared to Champagne. It’s not aggressive like some carbonated waters that feel harsh on the tongue. Instead, it gently lifts the flavor of your food and refreshes the palate without overwhelming it.

Still version more your vibe? You’ll get all the same benefits, minus the fizz. Smooth, silky, and softly mineralized—it’s like a quiet conversation with nature itself.

🍽️ Your Table Deserves This

Health aside, let’s be honest: 22 Artesian looks as good as it tastes. Whether Still or Sparkling, each bottle comes in a sleek, heavyweight glass bottle with minimalist Spanish design. It belongs on your table next to the wine glasses and candles.

This is water that doesn’t compete with wine—it complements it. And for your non-alcoholic guests, this is a luxurious alternative that won’t make anyone feel left out.

🛒 Where to Get It

Here’s the kicker: You won’t find this in the grocery aisle or on Amazon. It’s exclusively available in the U.S. through Salacious Drinks, and we carry both Still and Sparkling versions in 880mL glass bottles. Build a case. Make it your house water. Share it at dinner. Or keep it as your not-so-secret beauty weapon.
