Contest Aims To Identify Best-Tasting Tap Water In Maine

BANGOR, Maine - Maine municipalities are battling for bragging rights when it comes to the best-tasting drinking water.
 
Maine Rural Water Association's 31st annual Best Tasting Water contest is being held Thursday at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor.
 
Last year, first-time entrant Caribou Utilities District took the prize.
 
The contest has categories for treated and untreated water. The panel of judges includes a TV news anchor, the University of Maine basketball coach and Maine Senate President Mike Thibodeau.
 
The statewide winner gets to represent the state at the National Rural Water Association's contest in February in Washington, D.C.
