Japanese water that you miss when living abroad | Hot spring water 99 delivers peace of mind and taste

For Japanese people and travelers living overseas, "differences in water" can be a surprising source of stress.
In Japan, soft water is the mainstream, but in other countries, hard water is common, and many people find it tastes different and puts a strain on their stomachs and intestines.
In this article, we will introduce the reasons why we miss Japanese water and why Onsen Water 99 can deliver peace of mind and taste even overseas.


Why do I feel the water is different overseas?

Drinking water overseas is hard and contains a lot of calcium.
  • Japan: Soft water is mainstream (hardness is often below 30) → Soft to the touch

  • Europe etc.: There is a lot of hard water (hardness 120 or more) → It has a strong mineral taste and can be a burden on the stomach and intestines.

  • Southeast Asia: Water purification facilities are available, but water quality and sanitary conditions are unstable and there are concerns about direct drinking.

👉 This difference is the reason why people feel that they are not compatible when living abroad.


Scenes that make you miss water in Japan

  • Making milk for a baby → Hard water makes it difficult to dissolve and the taste changes.

  • Japanese food cooking → Affects how well the soup stock and rice are cooked

  • Daily drinking → People with weak stomachs may get sick from hard water.

"The water doesn't match" is a common problem not only for people living overseas but also for travelers.
