The Taste of Precision: When Water Becomes Part of the Culinary Journey
In fine dining, every detail carries meaning. The way a dish is plated, the temperature of the glass, the pause between courses, all contribute to the rhythm of the experience. Among these elements, one stands quietly yet powerfully at the table: water.
For chefs and sommeliers, water is more than a refreshment. It is a conductor of taste, a bridge between moments, a reset for the palate. With the BE WTR AQTiV+ Carafe, water evolves from a simple accompaniment into a sensory element that enhances the entire culinary journey.
Crafted for the art of gastronomy
Developed in Switzerland, the AQTiV+ Carafe unites innovation and craftsmanship. Inside its elegant form lies a patented resonator that activates the water as it flows, creating a soft vortex. This movement enhances aeration and texture, resulting in a smoother, rounder taste that elevates both still and sparkling water.
The carafe is hand-blown in France by La Rochère, Europe’s oldest glassmaker. Each piece reflects precision and artistry, blending seamlessly into the atmosphere of a gastronomic table.
A quiet revolution in taste
During tastings across Michelin-starred restaurants such as Anne Sophie Pic, Flacons de Sel, and major culinary events such as SIRHA Lyon and the Bocuse d’Or, chefs and sommeliers described the difference as immediate. Water that feels alive, lighter on the palate, and more in harmony with food and wine pairings.
The BE WTR AQTiV+ experience refines how guests perceive taste itself. Between dishes, it clears the palate without overpowering flavours, allowing each creation to express its full depth.
Where craftsmanship meets purpose
This approach to water is part of a wider movement within fine dining: a return to authenticity, locality, and conscious refinement. Across leading restaurants and culinary stages such as SIRHA Lyon and the Bocuse d’Or, chefs and sommeliers increasingly recognise the role of water as part of the tasting experience.
Among them, Maison Marcon, winners of the 2025 Bocuse d’Or, also work with BE WTR and the AQTiV+ Carafe. Their philosophy reflects the same belief: that true excellence is achieved when innovation serves nature, precision, and emotion in equal measure.
