In 1895, the company was awarded a gold medal at the Brunswick State Trade Exhibition for the quality of its products.

Mineral Content[edit | edit source]

The mineral water from Gerolsteiner Brunnen is known for its high mineral content, particularly calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonate. The water is sourced from the depths of the Volcanic Eifel, a region known for its volcanic activity, which contributes to the high mineral content of the water.
