Fonteide is born from the rain and snow that falls on the volcanic soil of Teide National Park and the La Orotava peaks, a World Heritage Site. Fonteide mineral water flows from a natural underground spring protected from contamination at a depth of more than 300 metres and almost 5,000 meters from the gallery mouth. The gallery from which Fonteide water emerges runs for thousands of metres through the subsoil of these iconic natural spaces. Water falls rarely in the form of rain each year on the surface of the National Park, but often falls in the form of snowflakes. The volcano mineralises this water naturally, without it being affected by light or its composition changing.
