I ask because I have a fondness for Vichy Catalan sparkling water. Discovered it in Ibiza years ago. It’s got a lovely salty taste and it always tastes like it’s good for you
Downside, it’s hellishly expensive and difficult to find in the UK.
Sparkling water is essentially what I imagine TV static tastes like. However, there is such a thing as water sommeliers so there must be a difference.
I use filtered water for my coffee but there's all sorts of things about the right minerals that could determine taste so I suppose it might be worth it if you can really taste a difference.
Have you ever seen the episode of ‘down to earth with Zac Efron’ about water?
Suggests that those expensive waters are actually very very good for you.
