Dry-finish waters (sulfate)

73 waters where sulfate and chloride outweigh bicarbonate. Mineral, wine-dry, faintly bitter.

Most spring water is bicarbonate-dominant and finishes soft and round. This shelf is the other kind. Sulfate, dissolved out of gypsum, and chloride outweigh the bicarbonate, and the finish turns dry. A brut edge, faintly bitter in quantity, prized at the dinner table.

Ranked by sulfate content. The heavy hitters here, the gypsum-spring classics, are also calcium giants; dry and hard travel together.
