Winner: Table Rock Spring.

What Jonathan decided

Table Rock Spring Mountain Water wins (round 3); Radenska eliminated (dislikes sparkling); coconut water eliminated (prefers still); Parent's Choice and Turkey Hill out on plastic taste (Turkey Hill best 1-gallon jug he'd had, but still plasticky)

Parent's Choice Infant Water

This one won #5590 by default, and I said so: it was an unfair comparison against Polar Diet Tonic Water, which was awful and bitter and no good. Then in #5625 it got eliminated on plastic taste (though Turkey Hill was the best 1-gallon jug I had tried). A default win and a plastic-taste loss.

About Parent's Choice Infant Water

Parent's Choice is Walmart's exclusive private brand for baby and infant products. The infant water is steam-distilled with minerals added for taste (magnesium sulfate, potassium bicarbonate, potassium chloride), marketed for baby formula and cereal, also sold as a 2.5-gallon purified infant water. Budget positioning, as you would expect from Walmart.

Radenska Classic Sparkling Mineral

Radenska beat Schweppes in a sparkling showdown, tasting milder and more like regular water. But sparkling was its downfall in round 3: Table Rock won, and he admitted he just does not like sparkling water.

About Radenska Classic Sparkling Mineral

Radenska is naturally sparkling mineral water from Radenci, Slovenia, on the market since 1869 and drawn from the King's Spring. Owned by the Kofola Group since 2015, it is known for its three-hearts logo.

Table Rock Spring

This was a tournament legend. Five straight wins, all the way to the final three, where it went out with what he called a tiny microscopic plasticky taste. Along the way it beat Rethink, a five-way field, Aqua 84, Fresh Market Electrolyte Enhanced, and QURE.

About Table Rock Spring

Table Rock is a regional North Carolina spring water company, based around Hildebran and Valdese, mostly a home and office delivery outfit. Aldi's PurAqua spring water was reportedly bottled by Table Rock in Morganton for a time.

Trader Joe's Organic King Coconut

It won the coconut showdown, then went out in the five-way because he prefers still water to coconut water. Fair enough.

About Trader Joe's Organic King Coconut

Made from king coconuts, the Thambili variety native to Sri Lanka, which is sweeter and milder than regular young coconut water. USDA Organic, one single ingredient, 45 calories per 11.6 oz carton, with a very cool straw.

Turkey Hill Spring

It beat the lemongrass sparkling, though he admitted his bias against flavored and sparkling waters while calling it "not terrible." In the five-way it went out on plastic taste, though he said it was the best 1-gallon jug he had ever had.

About Turkey Hill Spring

Turkey Hill Dairy is in Conestoga, Pennsylvania, founded in 1931 by Armor Frey in Lancaster County. Kroger owned it from 1985 until selling it to Peak Rock Capital in 2019. Note the dairy is a separate company from the Turkey Hill Minit Markets convenience stores.
