Fresh Bottled NYC Tap Water

Tap’d NY is a bottled water company who’s motto is “Truth In Hydration”. As an alternative to hyped-up H2O from the other side of the planet, Tap’d has bottled filtered New York City tap water to sell locally. Finding the wasteful practice of importing water from distant lands ludicrous (according to the Tap’d blog, Fiji water travels over 8,000 miles to get to NYC), the company has created a product that helps raise awareness and provides a more sustainable bottled water option.

From the company site:

Tap’dNY is a New York City bottled water company with a local twist and knack for honesty. We don’t travel the world from Fiji to France seeking water or offer the usual bottled water gimmicks. We work with NYC’s public water system to source the world’s best tasting tap water, purify it through reverse osmosis and bottle it locally, leaving out ludicrous transportation miles. We offer an honest and local alternative to thirsty New Yorkers, giving them a smarter choice: to drink their own (award winning) water.
