Daylesford and Hepburn Mineral Springs Company
|Tired of seeing imported water from the other side of the world grace the tables of Australian restaurants and cafes, the founders of Daylesford and Hepburn Mineral Springs Co decided to act. Today, the team bottles and distributes water from the heart of Melbourne’s mineral springs capital. Not only are their products natural, sustainable, and local, with bottling and packaging just 100 kilometers from the source, but they’re stylish too. Their line of sparkling fresh fruit mineral waters showcase retro-labels that are brightly illustrated with sweet colors that match their equally scrumptious contents. Daylesford and Hepburn Mineral Springs Co are growing a dedicated following as Melbournians, Victorians, and Australians go for their beautiful local goods.

The bottles and its sweet contents are both worth heading north for, so bring on the pancakes.

I wish I could remember my dreams more often. I wish the damn things wouldn’t go in one ear and straight out the other. Who plants them and why?
