glacier water

Ancient frozen melt

Glacier water is water sourced from melting glacial ice, marketed as exceptionally pure because it froze before modern pollution.

The term appears mainly in bottled water branding and environmental contexts: The company bottles glacier water from Icelandic springs.

Whether it differs meaningfully from other purified water is debatable.
