For most, water is a mere basic area of liquid. It is a substance found in almost all other drinks, making it one of the lowest member of the thirst pyramid. However, in the world, there holds a bottle of water so amazing that I have traded my traditional "after school vanilla coke" for just a few sips per week; of its refreshing ice cold taste that I even beg for more.

This water cannot be found in packages like Arrowhead or Smart Water. It cannot be found anywhere except one location. It is housed by a metallic bottle that keeps the cold from escaping. It is accompanied by a block of ice that thaws as you drink it. The cold layer of water that forms around the metallic container chills your hand as you hold it.

But just where can this amazing water be found? Why; the only location that could suit such an amazing taste: Leon's Water Bottle. Everyday, I'll take a small dixie cup for just a sip of it, and I'll trade him a Coke at the end of the week.

At this point, one must be thinking, "Why? Why would someone trade a bottle of soda for a sip of water? It makes no sense." Words cannot describe the errors of this statement, just as words cannot describe the taste of this water.

And so, I can only conclude that this water - this stream straight down from heaven - has given me a new light on water. The simple chemical compound that once bore no taste to me had enlightened me of its delightful taste; its amazing temperature; and its texture. The odorless liquid now possessed an aroma like no other. One that could satisfy a thirst under any circumstances. Whether one was too cold, or too hot, or too hungry, or too full, it was a great compliment to any other taste in competition. And to think that so much - the taste, the texture, and the temperature - could all be put into one small metal container.
