Outside of Georgia, Borjomi water is widely famous for its excellent medicinal properties and taste. Its composition is unique and has remained unchanged for many centuries. Modern mineral water is sold both in glass bottles and in plastic ones.
Due to its high popularity, Borjomi began to fake. Therefore, many people are afraid to stumble on just such a bottle. How to be? How to distinguish a fake from the original Borjomi? We will tell you more about this later in the article.
Original bottle: what does it look like?
I would like to note that the manufacturer tried to protect the rights of consumers by providing containers with some distinctive features. From them you can easily understand what a bottle of water is in front of him.
How to distinguish a real Borjomi from a fake? You need to carefully examine the bottle. If it is plastic, then it should be closed with a plastic white lid. A glass bottle is sold with a screw cap that connects to a plastic ring. When opened, it is divided into 3 identical parts. The top is painted red. There is an inscription of the brand - BORJOMI.
Water in a glass container: how to choose a quality product?
How else can one distinguish a fake Borjomi from a real one? It is necessary to carefully inspect glass containers. At the bottom there are bulges in the form of three points. There are three stickers on the original bottle: two are on the front side, and one is on the back. The front of the label is embossed with the brand name. On the top sticker it is duplicated, but already in English.
On the back of the container on the label there is information about the manufacturer and the product itself. They, among other things, allow the manufacturer to protect the right to release products.
Also, according to the original packaging without any seams, you can determine the real Borjomi water. The logo of the brand is a deer, which is placed in the center of the front of the bottle between the top and bottom stickers. The impression of the artiodactyl animal on the original bottle should be smooth, with clear boundaries.
Those who are interested in learning how to distinguish the fake Borjomi should pay attention to the text. It must be symmetrical. If the information is randomly located, then this already speaks of a poor-quality product.
Note that the bottle (both glass and plastic) should be the original green-blue hue. This color is patented by the manufacturer.
Water in plastic packaging
How to distinguish a fake "Borjomi" in a plastic bottle from the original?
The cover on the original products is also white, painted red on top, there is also a brand inscription.
A fake label can be identified by an uneven or poorly pasted label. It is also worth paying attention to the colors: they should be bright.
Is it possible to distinguish a fake "Borjomi" from the original in the form of containers? Yes. This package has a narrowing at the bottom. In fakes, such a feature is extremely rare.
What packaging is better to buy water?
In modern society, the use of glass products is being promoted, increasingly replacing plastic ones. One of the reasons is that the latter are harmful to the environment. In addition, glass is the best container for storing food and drinks, as it is inert. Due to this, there are no chemical reactions between the elements of the vessel and the products and liquids placed in it.
The manufacturer claims that the mineral water in different containers does not differ in quality. That is, "Borjomi" in a glass bottle and a plastic one in taste and properties will be the same.
Conclusion
