Contrex Water Now On Sale in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Understanding What’s in Contrex Water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Contrex is famous for its ultra-hard “hard water”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mineral water from France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Some of the people who tasted the water may have opinion as,<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/div>
\n

Not really my kind of water<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\"\"<\/div>
\n

It doesn`t have a good taste<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

They are not used to consuming hard water as they normally drink soft water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"Contrex,<\/a>
\u00a9Pinnacle Gastro<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The hardness of the water is “1468mg\/L”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and the point worth mentioning is the high mineral content such as calcium and magnesium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

As you know, calcium and magnesium are essential minerals that we humans need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Especially women are concerned about bone density, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

so it is said that it is important to take calcium on a daily basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And I think it’s wonderful that we can replenish it by drinking water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it seems that many people are not used to the mineral-rich taste of hard water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Drinking mineral water has the image of being good for your health <\/p>\n\n\n\n

because it supplements minerals but depending on your constitution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some people, drinking hard water seems to make their stomach loose, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

so you have to see for yourself whether it suits you or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Personal Review: Why I Love Contrex<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To be honest with you, I love hard water such as Perrier to begin with and among those, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contrex is one of my favorites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It may sound a bit strange to say that I love water, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

but I really like this addictive taste….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It may be closer to LOVE beyond liking….<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/div>
\n

Why is it not for sale in Thailand?<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\"\"<\/div>
\n

When will it be sold here? <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I, in the past, have asked Nestl\u00e9, the distributor of Contrex, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Why is it not sold in Thailand?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

People usually drink it chilled, but I like its peculiar taste, so I drink it at room temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

That unique strange taste (sorry) is so addictive…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And when you drink it at room temperature, it’s thicker…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I feel the strange thickness of the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s why I like it! !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When I was a working university student, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

there was a time when I traveled from Thailand to Japan to take a summer course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

At that time, I bought a box of the water to be delivered to the hotel where I was staying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I consumed 2 dozen (24 bottles) of 1.5L during my 3 week stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Drinking Contrex was my way of healing myself, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and it gave me relief from my harsh working life as a college student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

After dreaming about Contrex being sold here for a long time, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I received a notice from a food trading company called Pinnacle Gastro, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

the company where I always buy Perrier in boxes, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

that “Contrex is now on sale.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I was so so happy that my blood pressure would go up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I immediately ordered 1.5L x 1 dozen x 5 boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

By the way, Perrier accounts for 80% of this wine cellar, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and there were 120 Perrier bottles at one point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buying Guide in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I usually buy heavy items (e.g. water, oil, rice, detergent) online at TOPS online or at LAZADA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
Check TOPS Online<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
Check LAZADA<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And after some research, it is currently sold only at Pinnacle Gastro’s LAZADA,<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and it is unknown at this point if it will be on the supermarket’s shelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It was not yet there on TOPS Online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essential Tips When Buying Contrex in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Compared to French mineral water sold in Thailand, it is expensive. (1.5L, 1 dozen: 948 baht)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It may be wise to buy on a promotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of March 1, 2023, there are only limited stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available in 500 ml and 1.5 L sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
