A Taste of Italy
The Italian soda brand, BLÚ ITALY, originates from a lineage that dates back to ancient Roman times, utilizing mineral-rich spring water sourced from Rimini, located in Italy's northeastern region. This water is known for its unique qualities and has been used in luxury hotels and restaurants throughout Italy. Blended with carbonation and concentrated fruit juices, the sodas embody the essence of Italian refreshment. The name
BLÚ ITALY pays homage to the popular mineral water once sold by the Galvanina company, retaining the enduring image associated with its iconic blue bottle.
