WHAT IS ARTESIAN WATER? A well drilled through a "confining layer" such as clay, which due to hydraulic head pressures rise up the well casing with great pressure to an elevation at the static level of the tapped confined aquifer. The natural filtration of the confining beds provide a protective shield from potential contamination. Artesian water is of superior quality to other forms of water. Virginia’s Best is tapped into a confined aquifer over 400 feet below the earth’s surface. An abundant supply of artesian water that flows through a completely sealed delivery system, free of human contact, and is never exposed to the environment. ARTESIAN WATER HISTORY “Artesian” comes from the name of the town of Artois, France (which was called Artesium by the Romans). During the Middle Ages, the artesian wells drilled here were well known. The first artesian well in Europe was dug in 1126 by Carthusian monks (i.e., of the Chartreuse order) at their convent in Lillers. It was drilled not by a rotating drill, but by pounding the drill down in to force a hole that was just a few inches wide. The Chinese, though, were making artesian wells hundreds of years B.C.
THE PERFECT WATER Artesian water is fortified with natural minerals (iron, calcium, magnesium, and fluoride) that are not found in any other types of harvested water.
