Lipton Malaysia is on a mission to help Malaysians elevate their tea experience. Partnering with Volvic, they are urging consumers to discover the difference high-quality water can make. Lipton claims using Volvic water unlocks a richer, more flavourful cup of tea compared to standard water.
Volvic water is drawn from the heart of the Parc Naturel des Volcans d’Auvergne in central France. The pH neutral water is natural with a soft taste and has a light mineral composition.
While tea connoisseurs may prioritize high-quality water, especially for premium teas, and often opt for bottled mineral water, a good water filter machine offers a convenient and accessible solution for everyday tea lovers to potentially enhance their tea experience.
