Summit Spring is one of the oldest and most revered natural free-flowing springs in North America. Surrounded by pristine Maine forest and protected for centuries, the unspoiled spring bubbles up naturally from an extremely rare geologic phenomenon, a bedrock-fracture at 750 feet above sea level on Summit Hill in Harrison, the highest point in Cumberland County, Maine. Extraordinarily pure, extremely low in mineral content, and naturally sodium free, the water has a clean, crisp flavor that is noticeably different from all others. The spring's remarkable purity is documented in texts dating back to 1792. In the 1800s, its water was transported in 35-gallon wooden barrels, first by horse-drawn carriage to Norway, Maine, then the Narrow Gauge Railway to Massachusetts and New York, and then by ship to Europe, where it was coveted for its purifying health benefits. Great care has been taken to protect and preserve the integrity of Summit Spring over the years and, to this day, the water is still collected in the original stone spring house without the use of pumps or other artificial means. Summit Spring remains one of the very few single-source natural springs—anywhere on earth—where water is collected, gravity fed, and bottled only at the source. Awarded the coveted State of Maine Premium Grade Designation.
