Experience one of the world’s most intensely mineralized waters with Essentuki No. 17 Sparkling Mineral Water. Sourced from the historic Essentuki mineral-water field in Russia’s Caucasian Mineral Waters region, this distinctive water is celebrated for its powerful mineral character, lively carbonation, and unmistakably savory finish.

Essentuki No. 17—also written as Essentuki 17 or Yessentuki 17—is a high-mineral, sodium-bicarbonate-chloride water with total mineralization of approximately 10,000–14,000 mg/L. Its remarkable composition includes naturally occurring bicarbonate, chloride, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and trace minerals. This concentrated mineral profile creates a bold tasting experience that is entirely different from ordinary sparkling water.

On the palate, Essentuki No. 17 is full-bodied, saline, and pleasantly alkaline, with pronounced mineral depth and a slightly savory finish. Sparkling bubbles lift its heavier mineral notes, creating a water that is complex, refreshing, and memorable. It is an excellent choice for experienced mineral-water drinkers and anyone interested in exploring traditional European and Caucasian drinking waters.

The number “17” refers to one of the original Essentuki springs classified during the early 19th century. Today, authentic Essentuki No. 17 can only originate from approved wells within the protected Essentuki mineral-water deposit.

Serve Essentuki No. 17 slightly chilled rather than ice-cold so its carbonation, texture, and mineral complexity remain expressive. Enjoy it slowly on its own, alongside rich or savory foods, or as part of a guided mineral-water tasting.

Because Essentuki No. 17 is highly mineralized and contains a significant amount of sodium, it is traditionally consumed in moderate portions. Individuals following a sodium-restricted diet or using mineral water for therapeutic purposes should consult a qualified healthcare professional.
