http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollinaris_(water)
Apollinaris is a brand of
effervescent table water, very well-known in German-speaking countries as "The Queen of Table Waters".
Since
1852, Apollinaris is sourced from a spring in
Bad Neuenahr,
Germany.
Since the mid-1930s and until 1945, the Apollinaris company was controlled by the
Amt III ('third office'), a division of the
SS-Wirtschafts-Verwaltungshauptamt'
Amtsgruppe W in charge of the food industry in
Nazi Germany. Along with other mineral waters—
Sudetenquell and
Mattoni—Apollinaris was bottled at the
Rheinglassfabrik bottling plant, also controlled by the
SS.
Today the source and the brand of Apollinaris belong to Coca-Cola which had acquired it from the multinational
Cadbury-Schweppes in 2006.
The fictional main-character of the novel
American Psycho,
Patrick Bateman is depicted as enjoying this water.
