June 18, 2023 - Day 173

Kobe, Japan

Kobe is a city in Osaka Bay in central Japan. It is a beautiful city surrounded by mountains that frame the harbor. There are many high end fashion stores and the Japanese say “If you can’t go to Paris go to Kobe.”. With a population of 1.5 million people it is Japan’s seventy largest city. It is most famous for its Kobe beef which we enjoyed for dinner. It is the site for Japan’s first golf course and it was the first city bombed by the Americans during the Doolittle raid during World War II. They are fanatic about baseball and there are billboards all over the city for the Orix Buffaloes who are first place in the pacific league.

There is an extensive railway, bus and subway system and I wanted to try it. We bought a ticket for a hop-on-hop off bus and went to the train station. I had heard of the “Hakutsuru Sake Museum” so we made an attempt to go. Every thing is in Japanese so it was a challenge to figure out how much to pay, how to buy a ticket, figure out what track to go to and then what train to get on but by pointing at a map and head shaking we got there. I posted some photos below.

One of the stops on the bus was labeled “Herb Garden” so we thought we would see that. We expected a small garden but was I ever surprised. We walked up the hill a bit and there was an elevator which we got on. At the top was a long line waiting for another elevator to a place called the “Kobe Nunobiki Herb Gardens and Ropeway”. We got to the elevator and it took us up to another line to buy a ticket to ride the ropeway which is actually a gondola that takes you to the top of Mount Rokko. Once on top you are treated to an incredible panoramic view of Kobe and you can see all the way to Kyoto which is 20 km away. The ticket was the equivalent of $13 for a round trip. When you get to the top you walk down a half mile brick path to a lower gondola station where you take a car back to the bottom. The place is Japan’s largest herb garden with over 75,000 herbs and flowers. There are 12 different gardens areas that have different themes. There is also a high green house where you can have lunch. I put some photos below.

Kobe was one of my favorite places to visit on this trip.

KOKIA in flashback - 2015

The year of 2015 sees KOKIA go on tour in Japan again for the first time in a while, to 'sow the seeds of her music' across the country. She has a lot of radio appearances to promote the tour, which runs from March to April.

She also has a big spring venue performance to promote her new album: I Found You. She does mention how her plans for next year mean there won't be a big spring performance in 2016, so this will be the last one for the forseeable future.

And then, at the KOKIA salon event for fan club members, KOKIA reveals she's pregnant! She's expecting her baby in January 2016, meaning that her final performance of the year in Kawaguchiko in October is starting to cut it close, especially since it's half-open air.

Kobe Arboretum & Nunobiki

Am Morgen bin ich mit dem Zug nach Suzurandai gefahren, und mit einem Bus weiter zum Arboretum. In dem Waldpark führen mehrere Spazierwege durch abwechslungsreiche Waldabschnitte. Die Morgensonne brachte die prächtigen Farben richtiggehend zum leuchten, ein Genuss!

Am Nachmittag ging es mit der Gondelbahn auf den Nunobiki, und zu Fuss zurück in die Stadt.

From today's hike. I was aiming for a castle, but it's long gone and instead there's a monument. You can still see hints of its presence, although I need to learn how to read the landscape in the way I could back in Blighty.

The route up was mountain goat country. A lovely sign post says it's "only" 1.2km from Shin Kobe. That's 1.2km of hard climbing up broken paths and unsound footings. As long as you keep your wits around you, you should be OK.

After that I went down to Nunobiki Dam, which was quite the descent. Couple of highlights: saw my first wild boar and encountered a young mum with her 3 toddlers heading upwards. She was carrying one child, another on her hand and the third scrambling ahead. She was in a fashionable long skirt and trainers. Daft to say the least on a mountain trail.

Anyway, lovely, hard day's walking.

11 Most Expensive Water Brands in the World

Thought that $5 for a bottle of water at your local grocery store was pretty steep? Astonishingly, there are bottled water brands that sell water for that price - but with an extra one or two zeros. Yes, luxury bottled water is actually a thing, and we can only imagine who spends their money on it. But if you're curious about which bottled water brands cost the most at the moment, we've done the research and pooled together a list of the most expensive bottled waters we could find. 💲 11 Most Expensive Water Brands In The World Let's jump straight into the 11 brands that sell the most expensive water products in the world. FILLICO Jewelry Water There's no arguing with the fact that FILLICO Jewelry Water from Japan is extremely expensive. A 720ml bottle of still on the Fine Liquids website is currently priced at just over $4,200.00. According to the product description, the water is sold in precious stone-adorned bottles, which is presumably the reason why a single bottle will set you back so much. The bottles are handcrafted and made from black frosted glass, studded with Swarovski crystals. The water itself is sourced from the Nunobiki Spring, a famous spring in Kobe, Japan. It has a TDS of 13mg/L and a pH of around 6.7, and contains traces of calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, silica, and sulfate. As expected, FILLICO Jewelry Water is something of an exclusive product, and only 5,000 bottles are produced per month. We'd love to know how many of these are actually sold, and whether the bottles are ever sold out. Bling H20 Bling H20 is a USA-based bottled water brand that sells water in blinged-up glass bottles. We personally think the bottles look a bit cheap, not expensive, but a single bottle of water in a golden-drip frosted glass will set you back just under $50. Like the FILLICO water bottles, Bling H20 water bottles are studded with genuine Swarovski crystals. There are different bottles to choose from, some costing more than others, but there's one thing that ties them together: the diamond-studded Bling logo, usually in dazzling shades of silver, gold, pink, green, or purple. Bling H20's water is apparently municipal water that comes from New Jersey. It's purified with reverse osmosis and contains added minerals (magnesium and calcium carbonate) to boost its pH and improve its taste. Ô Amazon Air Water Ô Amazon Air Water is one of the most uniquely sourced water products we've come across in our research. It captures water directly from the humid air in the Amazon rainforest, which has been naturally filtered by the trees. The water production process involves filtering the air, then condensing it by running it over cold coils. This condensed water is then bottled, without ever touching the ground, so its TDS is naturally very low (approximately 4 mg/L). We can't find the Ô Amazon Air Water available on the brand's website or anywhere else at the moment, but other sources said that a 750 ml bottle costs €70 (around $77 USD). The water is sold in uniquely shaped glass bottles that make it clear that it's a premium product. But this is clearly a brand with a high price tag because of the uniqueness of its product, and not because of a few crystals on its bottles. Berg Water Berg Water is a brand of iceberg water from Newfoundland, Canada. A 750 ml glass bottle of Berg costs around $28 on Amazon. What makes Berg Water a premium bottled water product? The water source is clearly the big selling point - the iceberg water in Berg's bottles originated in the glaciers of Greenland and has a "clean, light taste" thanks to being safe from ocean water and harsh weather, according to the manufacturer. Berg Water is another bottled water with a naturally low TDS count due to its protected source (it's collected from inside an iceberg). We think the exclusivity of this water also makes it expensive - it's harvested in small quantities to minimize environmental impact - important given the real threat of melting glaciers due to global warming. ROI Water ROI Water is a brand of magnesium-rich mineral water that's sourced from the Rogaška Slatina in Slovenia. You can currently buy a 50cl bottle of this water for around $29 on the Fine Liquids website. RIO markets itself as one of the luxury water brands due to the uniqueness of its water source. The water is apparently "the most magnesium-rich water there is" (we're talking 1100 mg/L), and offers several benefits because of this, but should only be "enjoyed in moderation". As expected for an expensive brand, ROI water is sold in an expensive bottle made of glass with a gold lid and gold logo (but thankfully with no crystals or diamonds to be seen). The water has a pH of about 6.8 and a TDS of 7,481 mg/L, likely due to all that magnesium. It also contains calcium, bicarbonate, and traces of sodium. Beverly Hills 9OH2O Beverly Hills 9OH2O is a luxury water brand that won the World's Best Water Award and sells water that embodies the "vitality" and "elegance" of Beverly Hills (whatever that means). The brand currently sells just one type of water on its website: Beverly Hills 9OH2O Lifestyle Collection. This water isn't the most expensive bottled water on this list - it's just over $40 for a 12-case of 500ml bottles - but the brand once released a range of Luxury Collection Diamond Edition bottles. These limited edition bottles were made of glass and apparently cost more than $100,000 per liter on the resale market (we can't currently find them available to confirm this pricing, sadly). The bottle caps were, as expected, encrusted with white and black diamonds. As for the water source, we know it's spring water from the California Mountains, but we couldn't find any information on the water's pH, mineral content, or TDS concentration. NEVAS Water NEVAS is a German brand of artesian bottled water in elegant bottles that essentially just look like they contain champagne. Again, this brand's water range doesn't fall into the "most expensive water" category - but it sells limited-edition bottles that are made in collaboration with artists and designers and cost upwards of $1,000 each. Currently available to buy on the NEVAS Water website is the 1.5-liter deklart® – NEVAS Water Magnum, designed by the artist deklart (Dennis Klapschus Art), with Disney-inspired artwork on the bottle and packaging. The bottle is selling for €1,500 (around $1,680 USD) and is limited to one bottle per sale. NEVAS Water is apparently sourced from two artesian wells that are "several hundred years old", but we're missing important information about the exact location of these wells, as well as the water's mineral and TDS content. Again, it's more about the bottle than the water, here. MINUS 181 MINUS 181 is a unique bottled water that's sourced from a German artesian well that's - you guessed it - 181 meters below the ground. The water is sold by various European sellers and costs around $38 for a single 681ml bottle. You can buy MINUS 181 in tall glass bottles made by Riedel, an Austrian glass manufacturer, and despite its "designer" status it has a minimalist design - no crystals or jewels to be seen here. It's the water that sells the product, since it's located so far beneath the ground that it's free from pollutants and can be bottled untreated. The water is slightly alkaline, with a pH of 7.36, and contains traces of calcium, nitrate, magnesium, sodium, sulfate, and bicarbonate. According to the manufacturer, it's perfect for accompanying flavor-intensive specialities and delicacies, and has an ideal drinking temperature of 9-12 degrees Celcius (48-53 F). Uisge Source Uisge Source is a natural spring water and bottled well water brand selling luxury water for a specific purpose: to accompany whisky. The water is sourced in the Scottish regions of Islay, Speyside, and Ross-shire, which are known for their whisky distilleries ("uisage" simply means "water" in Scottish Gaelic). Two of these sources are natural springs, and the other is a natural well. Each bottled water product is designed to accompany malt whiskies from each of the three regions. While Uisge Source isn't the most expensive water in the world, it's still more expensive than most. A case of 12 50ml bottles costs £36, which is around $25. That doesn't sound too bad, but 50ml bottles are one-tenth of the size of the usual 500ml bottles, so you essentially pay $25 for 1,000ml overall - the volume of two normal-sized bottles. Evian Virgil Abloh Evian is a brand that most of us know for its affordable bottled waters, so you might be surprised to find it on this list of the most expensive water in the world. It's true that Evian's bottled water is generally very affordable. But the brand recently collaborated with visionary artist Virgil Abloh, and their limited edition water bottles were sold at luxury prices. These bottles are no longer for sale on Evian's website, but some sources said that one 750ml bottle cost $155. We saw a couple of bottles for sale on eBay for between £20 and £99 (around $15 to $75), so perhaps they've dropped in value since the initial interest passed. As far as we can tell, there's nothing special about the water in these bottles - it's just Evian water, sourced from a natural spring in the French Alps. So, you're definitely only paying all that money for the bottle. Iluliaq Water Iluliaq Water is another bottled water brand to sell iceberg water at an extortionate price. We couldn't find the bottled water for sale today, but other sources said it cost around $50 per liter. According to the manufacturer, Iluliaq is the "original" iceberg water, and is sourced from the Sermeq Kujalleq glacier - a UNESCO protected site on the west coast of Greenland. Glacier water is naturally pure, with a TDS of less than 10 PPM, and Iluliaq Water apparently is even purer than this. It's stored in elegant glass bottles with stoppers, which ensures the "unique quality" of the water. If you enjoy fine wines or you're a "distinctive gormet", Iluliaq Water is supposedly a good water for you to try - if you can get your hands on it. We have a feeling it's no longer being produced. 🤔 Is Expensive Water Worth It? In our opinion, no, expensive water isn't worth it. And from what we've seen, we don't think many people actually spend tens of dollars on luxury water bottles, even for the fancy bottle or the opportunity to drink from one of the most unique sources of water in the world. In our research, we came across at least 5 premium bottled water brands that no longer sell their products and appear to have permanently closed shop. While we can't say for sure, we think it likely has something to do with the fact that a whole lot of money goes into producing expensive waters, and it's just not worth it if nobody is buying your product. The problem is that there are many other bottled water brands that offer the same exceptional quality at a fraction of the price. If restaurants want a good table water, they'll buy Perrier or San Pellegrino - they won't spend an extra $20-$50 or so per bottle on water that even their richest customer probably won't buy. The same goes for selling water direct to the customer. Unless you have so much money that it's lost all value to you, or perhaps if you wanted premium water in high-quality glass bottles with a luxury feel, you wouldn't be able to justify the cost of what it, ultimately, just water. Some of the most expensive water brands don't even sell particularly unique water - we even found a couple that purify tap water, and the expense is due to the water bottle itself. In all, we don't recommend spending your money on expensive or premium bottled water unless you're really curious about a certain water brand and you've set aside some "treat yourself" money. Related Articles: - Expert-Recommended Bottled Water Selection - Unveiling the Hygiene of the Water You Drink from Bottles - Saving Money on Bottled Water Using a Water Filter Pitcher 📑 Final Word So there you have it - now you know of the most expensive water in the world. Maybe you're tempted to try one of these premium water brands yourself, or maybe you were simply curious, and have better ways to spend your money! We would personally rather spend our money on something much more long-term than a single bottle of water. If you want to drink the best-quality water, filter it and mineralize it at home. You'll achieve similar results at a fraction of the cost. 👨‍🔧 Not sure where to begin? Check out our guide to the best water filters of . ❔ FAQ What is the rarest drinking water? We'd say Ô Amazon Air Water is the rarest drinking water because the water is collected from natural humid air in the Amazon rainforest and is filtered without ever touching the ground. We don't know any other water that's sourced in this manner. Why is Bling H2O so expensive? From what we can tell, Bling H20 is so expensive simply because of the diamond-encrusted bottles it's sold in. The water itself is nothing special - it's purified RO water from a municipal source, so not like you're paying for the novelty of iceberg water or water from an incredibly rare natural spring. Why is Svalbardi water so expensive? Svalbardi water was so expensive due to the Svalbardi was another brand selling pure iceberg water, which is protected from the elements and has a low TDS and contaminant concentration as a result. However, this water brand has now permanently closed, so even the uniqueness of its water source clearly wasn't alluring enough to tempt enough people to spend €99.95 (around $110 USD) on a single 750ml bottle. Is luxury water worth the cost? No, in our opinion, luxury water isn't worth it. Yes, some premium bottled water brands sell water from unique sources, but spending up to $100-$200 on a bottle of even the fanciest iceberg water just isn't worth it in our eyes. The water doesn't taste much better than any cheaper water brand, and you're often just paying for the expensive glass bottle. Plus, you can often achieve basically the same water composition through filtration and alkalizing methods at home. Maybe if you have a special occasion coming up and you can justify the spend, consider it. Otherwise, stick to cheaper bottled waters or filter your water at home. Read the full article
