Mineral water degustation in the Engadin

Mineral water tasting is a unique experience in the Engadin, accompanied by certified Swiss water sommelier® Sabina Streiter, for gourmets and culinary enthusiasts who want to discover the diversity and flavours of natural waters.

What makes the tasting so special?

Scuol, Tarasp and Vulpera are known for their exceptional and numerous mineral springs.  The minerals, carbon dioxide and the water's journey through millennia-old rock layers give each mineral water a unique taste. This offer allows you to taste natural mineral waters and discover the different nuances in their flavours.

«Every mineral water is unique», says Swiss water sommelier® Sabina Streiter. The expert guides you through the experience and shows you how to perceive subtle differences in taste, texture and mineralisation – something that is rarely consciously experienced in everyday life and is familiar to many only from the world of wine.
