Water
The first analysis of Biborteni natural mineral water is performed in 1871. Its subject was the BORHEGYI spring and it was conducted in Budapest by chemist MOLNAR JANOS, a member of the Hungarian Society of Natural Sciences.
In the old days, the internal or external curative usage of mineral waters was made empirically, and knowledge about these treatments was most often transmitted orally, occasionally turning into real legends.
But the development of society
There is no source of information for the exact moment when the exploitation of Biborteni mineral water began. By exploitation we mean the systematic bottling and selling of this product on various market. But Molnar Janos speaks about this mineral water and the fitting out of the spring as early as 1871 in his work
The underground water network gathers rain waters passing through the layers of slate and limestone, this way accumulating many mineral elements.
Carbonated water forms in pools located in underground water-bearing layers of volcanic origin. This structure contains a special type of rocks, called basaltoid andesite, which ensure the permanent enrichment of the water with natural

In the old days, the internal or external curative usage of mineral waters was made empirically, and knowledge about these treatments was most often transmitted orally, occasionally turning into real legends. But the development of society at the end of the 19th century, together with that of technology and science made some members of the society pay more attention to their bodies and their health, while at the same time more and more scientists (doctors, therapists, chemists, etc) were able to provide them with more and more complete information about mineral water as an alternative to other treatments.
This is the context in which besides Western European mineral waters which led to the creation of treatment and tourism centres, such as Baden Baden, Karlovy Vary, Vichy, etc, Biborteni mineral waters have begun to come under the spotlight.
