Bottled water brands taste different for many people because of how they are filtered and/or purified.
Why do different bottled water brands taste completely different from each other? The different taste or flavor comes from where the water comes from. This determines the mineral or chalky taste that some have as the water passes through the different layers of limestone deep underground. To include, many bottled water brand companies will add other minerals to enhance the taste, yet this does or does not mean it will taste good.
The most bought water bottle brands are Aquafina, Dasani, Nestle Waters, Glaceau Smart Water, Poland Spring, and many more. On one hand, the best tasting bottled water brands are Fiji, Voss, Glaceau Smart Water, Dasani, and Aquafina.
