Tap water is vastly different depending on where it is sourced. In my experience, most countries have pretty bad tap water.

- HPsquared 4y agoAfter a few rounds of filtration it's all going to be the same.
- Reason077 4y agoBut if you carefully filter and re-mineralise it before bottling, you can turn it into more or less the same product anywhere.
- Gud 4y agoNot really talking about bottling- in Scandinavia their tap water is better than most bottled water.
- iamacyborg 4y agoI still think about how good Vancouver tap water is compared to the stuff we get in London.
- Reason077 4y agoLondon tap water varies a lot in different parts of London. When I used to live in North-West London it was very hard (ie: full of minerals) so you'd constantly be cleaning the limescale gunk out of your shower, off your taps, etc. And I also remember it smelling noticeably "chlorinated" at times. Now I live in East London (E14) and it seems much softer - we get a bit of limescale but nothing like it was at my old place, and no pool-water smells. But anyway, I think anywhere in London, so long as you run it through a filter (ie: Brita filter) and chill it, it tastes more or less as good as any bottled water.
- iamacyborg 4y agoYeah I’ve never thought London water was bad, but Vancouver water tasted amazing.
- donatj 4y agoI would say it varies pretty widely on a much smaller than country level, moreso by source. Water from an aquifer almost always tastes much better than water from a river.
