What inspired you to become a Water Sommelier?
Rescue of the brownfield "Vratislavická kyselka" and revival of the 160-year-old brand of the best mineral water
What is your superpower?
Endurance
Can you share a memorable experience you've had as a Water Sommelier?
It's a strange and quite untransferable feeling when you order your own mineral water in a restaurant incognito.
Still or Sparkling?
Sparkling
Low or high TDS?
High TDS
Salty or sweet?
Sweet
What is your favorite water and why?
Can I say something other than Vratislavická kyselka? (and by the way, it's true)
Please finish the sentence: Water for me is...
bread. Daily bread.
What do you believe is the future of the Water Sommelier profession?
First of all, water sommelier is not a profession, it's a calling. And second, in a hundred years, we'll all be water sommeliers.
How do you think valuing water contributes to a more sustainable future?
I answered in the previous question 🙂
What else would you like to share with the community?
I will personally guide any water sommelier with a Doemens certificate through the Vratislavická kyselka factory.
Jan, thank you for the interview!
Best regards
Timo Bausch
