Refreshing is not a taste. So when some of us describe the taste of water as such, we have no idea either. right? I dont think wate should have a taste. My friend says it should taste "good". Again, "good" is not a taste. Dont get me wrong, it should NOT taste "bad" either. But in your oppinion, should water have a taste?

water should taste like nothing. If you know what nothing tastes like- that is what water tastes like.

Water tastes like the mineral deposits that are in it, that's why water from different regions tastes so different. Reverse osmosis water shouldn't really taste like anything because it is pure water, nothing else, unless there has been additives added. However it sometimes will taste this the plastic bottle it came from if it has sat in the sun.

Water’s taste comes from the naturally occurring minerals found in the water. Although some of these minerals can be removed during the purification process, some minerals are added back to products like DASANI for a pure, fresh taste.

water should be tast less and color less and odor less. If you drink from bottle water look at the lables and it will tell you how they are made or is it natural. Beside if you are drinking one brand of water for a long time then i switch out to a different bottle water that is process differently you will notice it right away. If you install a R.O system at your sink with out the cocount flaver filters then that is a pure taste. If you install it with the cocount flavor then it will become sweet. It is all about your taste bud and which one will you drink more of. There are at least one that match your taste buds. I own a bottle water company and a filter system company.

Water has a taste. They are all different. Well water vs tap. Well has an iron taste. Tap has a sulfur taste depending on the part of the world.

Pure water has no taste. It is the minerals dissolved in water (such as spring water) that produces the taste in water. So, the taste of water depends on the trace minerals that are dissolved in water.

IMO, water should not have a taste. You should not be able to taste salt, metals, other minerals, metal pipes, chlorine, or sulfites. You should not be able to smell any of these either.
Altho, I will say Evian has "negative" flavor. NOt that it tastes bad, but that it is so far from having any flavor at all, that is saps any flavor out of your moth that you already had there. It is total nothingness in flavor. Not just zero, but mroe down the (-) scale than the (+) scale. KWIM?

Technically, you're asking two questions.
If you're asking what water tastes LIKE, then, of course, "good" and "refreshing" are not suitable answers.
If you're asking HOW water tastes, then those response are suitable.
Such is the English language.
As for what water should taste LIKE, I guess I would say "water should taste like a refreshing spring"

No I don't find water to have a taste. It tastes better cold sometimes, but then again sometimes it is better at room temp....it really is just a matter of personal opinion. Water doesn't taste, it's just wet.

To me, the best water has absolutely no taste. If it has taste, it has impurities. Refreshing, and good are qualities, not taste.
