Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting

The Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting welcomes waters from more than a dozen countries, and states as far away as Hawaii on Saturday, June 5. Held at The Country Inn in the historic spa town of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, it is the largest and longest running water tasting in the world, dubbed by BuzzFeed and The Week “the world’s most prestigious water tasting.”

In 2017 Nancy Andrews 100 Days in Appalachia includes a visit to the Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting see what she has to say about the importance of water.

Watch the seminar from June 4, 2021.

Watch the Saturday June 5, 2021 evening tasting and awards.

Please note: Out of an abundance of caution, masks and social distancing are required at Friday’s seminar and Saturday’s events.  There will be no public tastings, evening reception or water rush.  Extra water will be donated to the Eastern Panhandle Empowerment Center. While recommendations have suddenly changed, organizers are staying with the protocols developed to ensure maximum safety and privacy for all of those involved and attendees.  The feedback regarding these decisions has been very positive and appreciated.

We want to thank everyone for your understanding and cooperation.
