Concerned with the carbon footprint of world-travelling bottled water, grano has installed an excellent filter system by Forefront Homespring. We call our fresh new product T*eau and serve it free of charge in place of regular Toronto tap and bottled natural water. Feel free to check the FAQ page for more info.
