Drink up! Bloomington tap water is the best in the state

The City of Bloomington was recently awarded “Best in Glass” after a tap water taste test hosted by the Minnesota Section of the American Water Works Association. This is the third time Bloomington has been recognized for providing the best tasting tap water in the state.

In the blind taste test, tap water is served at room temperature and judges rank it on taste, color, odor and mouth feel. Seventeen other cities across the state competed at the conference in Duluth this fall. The final round came down to Bloomington, Moorhead, Owatonna and St. Peter.

Watch for the results when Bloomington, representing Minnesota, heads to Denver for the national conference and competition in June.

Flash back: At the national conference in 2016, Bloomington took first place for “Best of the Best” water nationwide. Cheers!
