  • Numen ranked highest in overall liking with Fine Bulle Perrier, Quézac, and San Pellegrino closely following.
  • St Yorre and Rozana performed the worst, described as 'absolutely terrible' or having high minerality issues.
  • A head-to-head tournament among the top 8 waters resulted in San Pellegrino winning, confirmed by a Bradley-Terry model analysis.
  • High minerality was penalized in tasting, while higher fizz generally improved scores.
  • Price showed a slight correlation with taste, with Quézac, San Pellegrino, and Badoit Intense offering good value.
