The original Essentuki № 4 and Essentuki № 17 are only extracted from the wells of the Essentuki field located at 640 meters above sea level in the Caucasian Mineral Water region.
The Essentuki mineral groundwater deposit is formed by ancient seas and volcanoes over 70 million years ago which determines the unique composition and special healing properties of Essentuki mineral water.
Minerals of the Elbrus subsoil have enriched Essentuki water for more than 800 years. The mineral water is now pumped from wells 600−1000 meters deep.
Essentuki is a natural carbonated mineral water, one of the original bottled water brands in Russia. Both sub-brands, Essentuki No. 4 and Essentuki No. 17, have been produced for 150 years and are highly popular. The city of Essentuki, known for its mineral springs and health institutions with a 200-year history, is the source of this natural and healthy water. The springs have always attracted people from all over the country, with sanatorium treatments involving drinking the water and healing baths.
Narzan, a well-known mineral water brand in Russia, is also a natural mineral water. The first batch of bottled Narzan was released in 1894.
