Hey, what's up everybody? Here's another water comparison video. Tonight we're comparing these two waters. First up is Alka Crisp. This is naturally alkaline water. Next up is Highland Spring Water. This is the still version in a glass bottle. They also sell a sparkling version and a version in a plastic bottle, which is a little cheaper. So what these two have in common is these are both high pH waters and these were both from Amazon. Highland Water is pretty popular in Europe. Aaron Drinks Water reviewed this in episode 935. And this is a Scottish water, but I think it's also popular in other parts of Europe. There's actually a YouTube video of Queen Elizabeth touring a factory that makes this. Apparently this is the number one sparkling water in Scotland. This has a pH level of 7.8. The Alka Crisp water is not that popular right now. This has a high pH of 9 between 9 and 10, but this is not very popular. I couldn't find anybody else reviewing this or making YouTube videos about this. Although in their Twitter account, there's actually no tweets. And I bought this a few weeks ago. If you check Amazon now, it actually says it's currently unavailable. So this was $11.99 for a six pack. The Highland Spring Water cost me $12.69 on Amazon. I think if you buy this water in Europe, especially the plastic version, I think it's going to be much much much cheaper, much more affordable. But they just don't sell it in the United States. So I had to pay extra. I probably have it shipped across across the world to get to me. Yeah, we're going to do a taste test. And I'm going to decide which one tastes the best. Let's move on to round two. So I'm guessing a lot of you watching this are new to the water comparisons. Because recently a big YouTuber, laser beam, featured me in a video. They got like four million views. So I think a lot of the new people watching these videos are from that. So you don't have to familiar with reviews. So I do a taste test. There's multiple rounds. I'm trying to decide which water is like my personal favorite. I've been doing this for several years. I've done like, I don't know, probably hundreds of different water reviews. So here we go. This is like a thicker plastic bottle with a full size lid. No smell. Double-sided sticker. So it's different on each side. Here we go. It's pretty good. It's like a sweet taste to it. Not like sugary, but like sweet. It's not like some carbonation coming out right then when I opened it. That was interesting, but there was no bubbles. Yeah, it's definitely the still version. So that was weird. Hmm, interesting. These are both good. This is gonna be tough. The Highland label was kind of like peeling off when it arrived. Top on the bottom. Not a big deal, but if you're paying, you know, almost $13 for a bottle of water, you know, I'd kind of expect it to not be peeling off when it arrives, but not a big deal. The Highland Springs website says there's a big focus for them on the environment. They say that they're working really hard to reduce their carbon footprint. So I guess that's good. I have no way of verifying that, but they say they are, so good on them. An interesting thing about this bottle is that it says, if you are pregnant, you should consult a doctor before taking it. That's really funny to me for a bottle of water to say that. Can you imagine like scheduling a point with your doctor going to a doctor's office and being like, hey, doctor, is it okay if I drink some water? Like imagine being a doctor and being asked that. Yeah, it's alkaline, but as far as I know, there's no reason a pregnant woman wouldn't be able to drink water. That's just, that's fine to me. The Alcochris water is pretty well reviewed on Amazon. It's got a 4.5 out of 5. And all the reviews are positive. The only reason they got low ratings for some of the reviews is because they were complaining about the price, but other than that, everyone seems to agree that the taste is very good. Yeah, it's good. I'm going to test the pH levels. All right, here's the results of the pH test. They both look like they have a pretty high pH to me, but I'm colorblind, so you guys look at the chart and decide for yourself, which color you think they match up with. I've read online that this has a low TDS. That's not really what I'm tasting. This taste like has a high TDS to me, total dissolved solids. Can it taste a little bit earthy to me? Like some of the people I saw reviewing this said it tastes the opposite of that, but I don't know, it tastes a little bit oily, a little earthy to me. And this one says things a lot more sweet. If I'm picking which one tastes cleaner, I have to pick this one to be honest. Maybe like the plastic makes it taste kind of softer, but like for cleanness, I'll go with this. So like I was saying earlier, a lot of you guys are probably from LaserBeam's channel. It's pretty incredible. His one video has like over four million views in just two days. I've been doing this channel for like over eight years, and all 8,000 plus videos of mine combined are less than his one video. It's pretty incredible though, but I checked out some of his other videos. They're actually really funny, and he seems like a really nice guy and really generous. So I guess he deserves it. But yeah, welcome to the channel. These water reviews are actually coming to an end. After this, there's only two more round one videos, and then I'm gonna pick the final winner, and then the water reviews are just gonna end. I'm gonna keep drinking water, but I'm gonna be ending the water reviews. So here we go. Let's pick the final winner for this round. So in my personal opinion, I think I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this from people in Europe, but I think this one tastes better. It just tastes more pure and more clean, like a softer taste. There were several YouTube videos where people are like saying this is the best water ever. This is their favorite water of all time. I'm sorry to you guys, but I prefer the taste of this one a little bit more. So this is moving on to round two. So that's it. Yeah, welcome to the channel, guys. This is January 1st, 2020. My New Year's resolution for this year has already been broken. My New Year's resolution was to give up bottled water. I switched to these glass bottles, and to metal straws, just to go more green, and also save myself some money. But it's January 1st, and I've already broken my resolution by drinking this plastic bottle. So I blew it. Oh well. I didn't get it. Anyway, have you guys tasted any of these waters? What are your thoughts? Leave a comment, or leave a comment just saying your favorite water. Alright, thanks for watching. Goodbye.
