That entirely depends on where you're drinking it. I once had the
misfortune to taste London tap water directly (at St Pancras Station,
about 1986), and I swore I'd never drink it again. I suspect you could
bottle cat pee and it would still taste better than London tap water,
so comparing a free product that tastes vile with a more expensive one
that tastes pleasant isn't really a fair comparason.
