Asked Rospatent subject to understand. 37 applications considered Rospatent, and began the process of withdrawal from these companies the right to produce water "Essentuki", because they have not have access to wells. Moreover, it lacks the special properties of mineral water. These producers will lose the right to release the water. Then people buy in the store water "Essentuki", will understand that it is real "Essentuki" and not water from the tap labeled "Essentuki".
