You’ve got sensors for acidity and alkalinity, but water is almost never truly neutral, so for sure you can taste that. You can also taste/smell a bunch of other stuff in water, like salt, other minerals, or chemicals like chlorine.
Comment on really makes you think

I doubt you’re drinking pure water. You’re almost definitely tasting all the minerals and junk in the water rather than the water itself.
