Koscher Certification
On 3rd March 2008 Vilas Del Turbón was certified as Kosher by the rabbinate of the Barcelona Jewish community.
What does Kosher certification involve?
Kosher is the equivalent in English of the Hebrew word meaning fit or suitable. It refers to the Jewish religious laws on diet which determine which foods may be considered fit for consumption. These rules, interpreted and expanded over the centuries, determine precisely which foodstuffs may be considered pure, i.e. in compliance with the precepts of the religion, and which may not. The kosher certification received by certain food products shows that they abide by the precepts laid down and can therefore be considered pure and fit to be consumed by members of the religion. In recent years this certification has also become an additional guarantee of the purity and quality of the foodstuffs to which it applies.
Koscher mineral water
Kosher mineral water is subjected to a highly rigorous process which does not allow the use of chemical additives, and stipulates that the machinery used in the bottling plant must be used exclusively for the certified natural mineral water.
Vilas del Turbón natural mineral water is from a source deep down and emerges in a spring, where it is collected without coming into contact with the air. An underground protective perimeter prevents any contact with surface water or outside agents from above ground, so that it retains and guarantees all its purity.
