A look at the Italian water that top Toronto restaurants are sourcing for their guests

over 2 years ago

There is an alkaline water being served at Toronto's top restaurants and boutique stores with a minimalistic design that looks as good as it tastes. The brand known as Dolomia believes that naturally sourced water with a unique mineral composition must be met with an elegantly designed bottle.

Deriving its name from where it arises, Dolomia water is sourced from the mountains of the Dolomites National Park in the Italian Alps. Now a UNESCO World Heritage site, the water flows within the mountains for decades, where it absorbs all of the rock's minerals and nutrients. Dolomia is a naturally alkaline water which means its pH balance is above level 7 with an optimum marking of 8. Most tap and other bottled waters fall short of meeting this standard. The benefits of drinking alkaline water is that it helps in reducing acidity in the body and is good for rehydrating after physical activity. Moreover, its balance with the right levels of low sodium, high dissolved oxygen and little to no arsenic have allowed it to take the most precious elements from the Dolomite rocks that make it full of life.

Not only does Dolomia pride itself in its purity, lightness in taste and richness in good minerals, but its packaging has also been designed with careful consideration. Whether it is on the go, at home or out for dinner, what is distinct about Dolomia is its product ranges. Dolomia carries four different lines with the same water to accommodate the various needs of hydration.

The first line is known as the pet PREMIUM, with four bottle sizes ranging between 330 mL to 1.5 L. The design is clean, with its smallest bottles intended for children and its largest for daily consumption at home. Similar to the premium, the pet CLASSIC line was designed with a slightly different colour and shape for everyday use. Within the line, the options of still, lightly sparkling and sparkling are available in either 500 mL or 1.5 L.

The pet ELEGANT is more distinct than the two previous lines, with a sleeker bottle design for someone looking for a more elevated look. Ranging between 250 mL to 1 L, the still and sparkling bottles were created with consideration for their appearance on a dinner table. An overall rounded shape allows the smooth bottle to complement its great tasting water stylishly.

In the same theme of sophistication and elegance is Dolomia's final and most luxurious line, the GLASS EXCLUSIVE line. The Dolomia bottles designed of glass with a minimal label were created to exclusively complement the luxurious environment of high-end restaurants. The idea behind the creation was to bring an element of sophistication and refinement to an already distinguished setting. The GLASS EXCLUSIVE line was designed as either 330 mL, 500 mL or 750 mL for the hospitality industry and premium restaurants.

Dolomia believes that due to the water's unique mineral composition and naturally light taste, like a good wine, a good bottle of water enhances the overall dining experience. Thus, Dolomia is served in some of Toronto's top restaurants. Piano Piano, Barberian's, Aria, Harry's Steak House, Sotto Sotto and Forno Cultura are just some of the many.

Individuals can also get their hands on the water from boutique grocery stores such as Nature's Emporium and Harvest Wagon. Imported and distributed by Oro Caffe, individuals can stop into the store to pick up and place orders. Located at 10 Westcreek Drive, Unit 19 in Vaughan, Ontario, Dolomia's door-to-door service is the largest growing sector for the brand. A recent contender in the beverage industry with a little over ten years experience but already gaining international success, if you haven't already, you must quench your thirst with a glass of Dolomia.
