Water has a flavor. It has different flavors, depending on how clean it is, too. At least it does for me…

Right. But are you tasting the water or the junk in the water?

And not just that, the different mineral compositions give it a different flavor too. Sometimes when traveling here in Germany, I‘m filling my water bottle with regional tap water and often I‘m glad how good the tap water at home tastes compared to what you can get in other regions.

In the other regions defense, I’m sure they might say the same about your water simply because it’s different.
Unless you’re talking well water, that stuff can have a gnarly Sulfur smell to it, though still safe. Can’t seem to get used to that kinda smell though lol

Water quality varies quite a bit. The water in Seattle is significantly better than the water in Florida, for example.

Funny story relating to that, when I was 5 I was told that you couldn’t dig more than 6 feet in Florida because you would hit the “water line,” so I assumed that if you dug further you’d just hit the ocean and drown. Also yes the water there tastes like sulfur all the time and it’s nasty af, had to learn to get over my aversion to water after living there early on.

Florida water is weird here in the NW. Tap water is fairly “hot” in the summer since the lines are close to the surface. But YMMV. Our bathroom water is distinctly different than the kitchen water, in a tiny house, 8-years old. 🤷🏻♂️
