Why Petillant Exists
Rich food dulls the palate. Still water does little about it and sweet drinks pile on. Petillant is made for that gap, and nothing else.
Pronounced pay·tee·yawn
Pétillant
French for lightly sparkling. That is the whole recipe: water, bubbles, and a little lemon, lime and ginger. No sugar, no sweetener, nothing else to get in the way.
Kuchinaoshi
Japanese for the small, sharp thing served between courses to clear the palate. Petillant does that job by the glass, which is why the flavor is kept low: the food is the point, not the drink.
The first sparkling water made to be poured with something else — food, cigars, syrups or herbs.
