artesian water
Self-rising aquifer liquid
Artesian water comes from a well that taps into a confined underground aquifer, where natural pressure forces the water upward without pumping.
The term derives from Artois, a region in France where such wells were first drilled.
Artesian water is marketed as purer than surface water: The label boasted high-altitude artesian water from New Zealand.
