Coway announced on the 21st that its ‘Elite Water Purifier’ was selected as the No. 1 in the water taste evaluation category at the ‘8th Drinking Water & Water Purifier Quality Evaluation’ hosted by the Korea International Sommelier Association.

The ‘Drinking Water & Water Purifier Quality Evaluation’ is held annually on World Water Day to provide consumers with information about safe and delicious water. National representative water sommeliers conduct blind tastings to evaluate the taste of drinking water and water purifier products sold domestically, and based on the evaluation scores, awards such as Grand Gold, Gold, Silver, and Bronze are given.

In this water purifier taste evaluation, Coway’s ‘Elite Water Purifier’ and ‘Icon Ice Water Purifier’ both received the highest grade, Grand Gold, in the water purifier category.

In particular, the ‘Elite Water Purifier’ received the highest score among the water taste evaluation products and was selected as the water purifier with the best water taste. A judge who evaluated the water taste of the Coway Elite Water Purifier commented, “It has a clean throat feel and presents a refreshing and sophisticated water taste.” Since the water purifier taste evaluation began in 2019, Coway has maintained the No. 1 position and has been recognized as the best-tasting water purifier for five consecutive years.

The Coway Elite Water Purifier, selected as the No. 1 in water taste evaluation, is equipped with a ‘reverse osmosis filter system,’ which has the best contaminant removal performance among water purifier filters, filtering out everything from heavy metals dissolved in water to viruses, always providing the best water taste.

The Coway Icon Ice Water Purifier, which also received the Grand Gold grade, was highly evaluated for providing excellent water taste due to its superior filter performance and enhanced hygiene functions. This product is the first Coway ice water purifier to apply a quadruple UV sterilization system and has been recognized for hygiene and safety through testing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

A Coway official stated, “Since 2009, Coway has been conducting research on water purifier water taste and was the first in the industry to establish a water taste research institute. Based on scientific analysis, we have defined the attributes of water taste and established standards for delicious water,” adding, “We will continue to strive to provide customers with the best water taste based on our expertise in water.”
