How long can stored mineral water last?!


Question:

How long can stored mineral water last?

I bought a large plastic container of New zealand ararimu mineral water from this organic supermarket and it isnt bottled or pressurized, the container just dispenses the water---How long will the water stay fresh? Doesnt water go off after a while when its not pressurized?

btw--NZ mineral water is like no other--its extremely great tasting and just feels healthy. lol


Answers:
The water will stay fresh for years.
The plastic container starts breaking down after about 12 months however, and will leach its component chemicals into the water.

Water never goes bad, all the water is between 6000 and 4.3billion years old depending on what you believe.

So long as you keep stuff from collecting in the water, it should keep forver. If sediment or growth appears, simply filter it.

It will say on the bottle, everything has a expiration date
