Your own private Tea House…in Little Italy!!!

Hey San Diego, I am so excited to share with you a hidden gem I discovered yesterday in Little Italy. It’s the Numero Water Boutique at 1660 India Street. This Japanese water company offers premium natural bottled waters from the beautiful foothills of Mt. Fuji Japan, a region located on the Izu Peninsula and recognized as one of the greatest natural resources in the world. 

We are in love with this company for their delicious water, beautiful boutique and soothing tea lounge, and to top it all off…their commitment to the environment. Numero Water strives to act as a conscientious community member, as well as have an active role in preserving the environment and reducing their carbon footprint.

So next time you’re looking for a place to relax and escape your hectic life, visit the Numero Water Boutique to find a little piece of Japanese Heaven!

numerO water bottles NOT effected as FDA changes mind on BPA

Last week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) changed its stance concerning health risks from bisphenol-A, or BPA, a widely used component of plastic bottles and food packaging.  The FDA declared its safety in 2008, but said on Friday, January 15, 2010, that it had “some concern” about the use of BPA and its effects on humans.

Please take comfort in knowing that every single plastic (PET, 500mL) bottle that numerO water sells and serves is BPA-free.  In fact, our plastic bottles are among the safest you can purchase on the market.  If you drink numerO water’s #29, #51, or #76, take comfort in knowing that you are drinking some of the world’s healthiest and tastiest bottled water.

Premium natural bottled water from the foothills of Mount Fuji, Japan, numerO water is a product that you, your family, and your customers can count on - just FYI.

Numero: A Water Boutique

Numero_9930

So when was the last time you cruised in to a water boutique and did a water tasting?  That would be ‘never’ for me, until yesterday.  I’ve seen Numero on the news, and I’ve even attended an event there, but I’ve never received the full experience.  Yesterday I did.  I actually sat down and Julie walked me through the history of Numero, the source that the water comes from (Mt. Fuji, Japan), and she also broke it down for me on how each of the three bottled waters are different.  I have to say that for my simple minded self, it was hard for me to “soak it all in”, but I do know one thing:  This whole experience made me think a lot about the water I drink.  I mean, I spend too much time thinking about the clothes I put on my body.  Some of us insist on putting premium fuel in our vehicles.  There are also animal lovers that will only buy the best puppy food for their little poodles.  So why don’t we care too much about the water we drink?  We buy expensive clothes, fuel and puppy food, but when it comes to water we’re all about 36 bottles for $2.99.  I’m no doctor, but I think water is pretty important for our survival, right?  So go to Numero and see what they have to offer.  Maybe we’re better off drinking quality water and letting the car guzzle up some 87.  No?
