Monchiques Natural Mineral Water, is originated in an underground source, 900 metres deep, protected from all risks of pollution and emerging from a spring tapped natural or bore exit. It is clearly distinguished from ordinary drinking water, by its nature and by its original taste. It is hypo-saline, bicarbonated (sodium carbonated and natural alkalined), with a unique super alkaline pH of 9,48. It has a sweet soft taste, and its consumption has gained health benefits, namely in the functioning of the urological system, auto immune diseases, osteoporosis, digestive health and many others. This thermal water has more than 2000 years of history, once it was used by the ancient Romans to heal skin and digestive diseases and was even transported to Rome, for the elites of the time to drink. Due to the complex and rare natural chemical composition of this water, it is considered to be unique and a highly differentiated water, all over the world. Monchique is the highest village of the Algarve, located 485 meters above sea level. The highest point in the Algarve is also located in the mountain range of Monchique, at Fóia, with 902 meters above sea level. Simple and beautiful, Monchique shows much more of what the Algarve region can offer, besides its beautiful golden beaches, golf courses and clear blue sky. It is said that the Romans populated Monchique due the healing power of the waters of the Monchique mountains. Even today the village is highly sought after by visitors due to natural thermal baths, like the Romans, today still believed to have healing powers. In fact, it was the Romans who gave Monchique its name, from the Latin expression Mons Cicus, that meant Sacred Water and built the SPA in Caldas de Monchique, but there is evidence that the area was populated as far back as the Stone Age.
