If you want to taste what "pure" water tastes like,
just go buy a jug of distilled water. It is flat and
utterly tasteless, because it has no impurities to
impart any taste to it. Most people don't like it
because it has no taste at all.
Some time ago there was a problem discovered with some
bottled water that everyone loved -- some spring water
from France, I think. It was discovered to have trace
amounts of benzine in it, which imparted a slight
sweet taste to it, which everyone loved.
If water tastes really good, it is because there is
something in it, which isn't necessarily good for you
even though it may taste good.
