This is okay. Honestly the fact that you guys' water tastes the same is comforting. I was afraid you were going to respond that all your filters turned your water into great tasting spring water. To the flavoring isle I go!
well most of the water in the sierras taste better than bottled spring water!
I was going to say the same about the rockies! I will go out of my way to find the springs just to taste the water. It is practically euphoria to sit at a spring and drink, drink, drink until you are about to burst. Then sit a while and drink some more before you head out. And make sure to fill up an extra liter for later.
I grew up in CO and you would be hard pressed to find better water than good ol Rocky Mountain pure H2O! Sierras is a close second.
Well our Ozark limestone filtered spring water is pretty darn good too. I'd enter it in a taste test competition with both Sierra and Rocky Mountain water. But I do sympathize with wesarnold.
I'll offer that you invest in the Britta Squeeze bottle with their activated charcoal filter and give it a shot. Lori may well be right about it not filtering tannins, I've not tried it, but I know what leafy water taste like. Still, the Britta bottle is inexpensive and so are the filters so it's worth a shot. I use mine a lot.
I found that after a few light uses with pretty good water the Katadyn Hiker filter imparted a sort of musty taste to my water. I ended up giving mine away.
