A company is flogging a ‘virtual water-tasting experience’ for a whopping £236.
The business offers a ‘Heilwasser BOX’ which comes with at least six specially selected waters.
They then send the box of waters to your home, before organising a call through google meet which they said should take around 90 to 120 minutes.

Pat Eckert, a certified water sommelier and owner of Fine Liquids, said: “Whenever a client books a tasting through us they receive a box with curated international fine waters – selected by me as a certified international working water sommelier.
“We then schedule the virtual call and drink the water together, followed by some specific rules.
“As we both have the same waters on our table we drink and explore together the amazing colours of water.”
He says the tasting box is to help clients create awareness for tasting water, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Pat continued: “It then helps them to find their best fitting water for all day hydration, special circumstances in sports, fasting or re-mineralising the body instead of using supplements.

“I talk about the unknown things in water, and the very unique stories of my provided fine waters.
“We talk about each water, looking for words how to describe such basic taste experiences as you know we never built a vocabulary for water.
“For individuals, they can pick what they prefer, have a meeting with us before hand, or leave it up to us completely.

“And each box usually includes around six waters.”
The box features “iconic” brands of water, including Orezza, Hirschquelle, Schiller Quelle, Staatl, Fachingen medium, Gerolsteiner medicinal water, Römerquelle, Radenska, Rogaska Donat MG, Paradi sulfur water, Vytautas and Ferenc Jozsef bitter water.
And each tasting can including still and low or high mineralised, lightly sparkling low mineralised, and highly sparkling high mineralised.
After the tasting, Pat says most people come back ordering their favourite waters.
He added: “When you find one you really like, it’s really easy to drink it and when that happens that is the key to getting old in health.”
Fine Liquids has been running since 1987, with Pat taking it over in 2018 and launching water tastings in 2020.
He said: “Water tasting is getting more and more popular, I’ve taken boxes to incredibly rich people to school classes.
“It’s very valuable to our company and I really like to do it
“It’s enjoyable and cool.”
