The Western Canada Section of American Water Works Association (WCS AWWA) hosts the annual Best of the West Water Taste Test in conjunction with the WCW annual conference. We invite AWWA Utility Members to submit a water sample that will be tasted and scored individually by a panel of independent judges. The winning utility will then move on to represent our Section at the Best of the Best Taste Test event at AWWA's Annual Conference and Exhibition (ACE) the following year. 

This competition celebrates the important work our utility members do everyday to deliver safe, high quality drinking water to their customers.
