Iskilde
Artesian well south of Åbenrå Fjord, Jutland (post-2019 well; brand rebranded Iskilde to ISKLD to signal the new source, tapping the same aquifer as the earlier Skanderborg spring)
Found in 2001 in a wildlife reserve by Mossø, under pressure enough to fountain on its own. Cold, faintly milky and calcium-forward, the bottle Noma keeps on the table.
