Anyone who regularly reads this blog knows that I love drinking water, I've reviewed two water companies and this one is one of the most special yet. While research is still being done on the sustainability of packaged drinking water, and toxicity issues are a cause for alarm with plastic bottles, I've stumbled onto something different and exciting.
Meet the SOMA Water System, a beautiful and innovative way to get wonderful tasting, clean water. The magic in this brilliantly engineered piece comes from the revolutionary filter which is comprised of 100% compostable materials such as Malaysian coconut shells, vegan silk, and a special food-based PLA plastic that is considerably safer than ordinary plastics on the market that leech out toxins.
The glass carafe is extremely sturdy and holds a wonderful amount of water, but let's not kid ourselves - the design is the selling point. Not only will it look good in any setting, but the design is decidedly minimalist and utilitarian. The shape makes it easy to grip and gives it increased surface area.
Unfortunately this is not currently sold on the market (I told you I love an underground, niche brand), but for those interested, bookmark: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/zachallia/soma-beautifully-innovative-all-natural-water-filt to stay up to date on availability. They've finished fundraising and met their goals, so those of you who missed out on placing an order might have an opportunity in the near future!
