THE SOURCE PAROT
A plant run by François Parot, offering naturally sparkling water from the volcanic rocks of the Monts du Forez.
Around 1800, the farmer Cessieux discovered the Fontfort spring, much appreciated by his cows, on his land. Around 1884, during the construction of the Forez canal, François Parot, a public works contractor, found a second spring which he named after himself. A third spring, that of Puits-Saint-Georges, was discovered in 1891. Faced with the popularity of spa treatments, François Parot decided to bottle this mineral water to prolong the benefits of the cure on the table. Made from the volcanic rocks of the Monts du Forez, Parot water is naturally carbonated, bicarbonated, sodium and fluorinated. 60 million bottles are produced today. Interesting, the guides of the Loire-Forez Tourist Office lead you to the heart of the bottling of naturally carbonated mineral water.
