No bottled h20 or filters here -- no need.

Again - no need here in MEL for bottled water, but while living in London I drank Evian - it has a distinct and unmistakable taste. Haven't tried Fuji. Volvic to me tastes a bit, well, volcanic?

Try Acqua Panna - you will like it.

I like Fiji (which I still get sometimes, can be had in local grocery stores or Target if I feel like splurging) and Vittel (which I got mainly in Europe although I've had it occasionally in a US airport, I think....)

For general drinking though I'll pick up a Dasani, and I usually have those around at home. It isn't the same as a spring water, but the various spring waters that turn up in the stores have inconsistent taste, sometimes an off taste that others don't care about but I won't like at all. Dasani is consistently okay for me and cheap. Aquafina, Pepsi's competitor product, has had at least sometimes when I drank it a somewhat off taste I didn't like.

After a bike ride or such, any water that's not what has been cooked for a while in my water bottle tastes pretty good.

If we're including flavored waters in this discussion, then chalk one up for :-: Propel :-: . It is sooooooooo much better than any of the other flavored waters out there!

If we are only talking about water-flavored water, then I will drink Fiji if I am splurging, Dasani if I am not, but tap water most frequently. My understanding is that bottled water contains no flouride, so I drink tap for that reason.

Vos is good too, but makes Fiji look like a bargain!

I like Evian. I have taken that water for years! It's a habit--no real difference with other waters--apart from the label!

Aquafina for me.

self bottled Roman tap.

Refilled Hawaiian tap water for me when at home. But, Fiji water when on vacation in Vegas and everything is comp.

Not too easy to find in US anymore but may be making a come back FERRARELLE

If it has to be bottled, I like Poland Spring

Best tap water i'd say would be in Maine and Switzerland.

When at home it's Severn Trent's finest treated tap water - if i'm in a bar or restaurant it would be a Sparkling mineral with a preference for San Pellegrino for still water I like Vittel

Agree, Fiji ^ ^

I'm fotunate to have tap Lake Michigan water which is great!

Volvic is cheap in France, so we'll drink it when there.

A bottle of cold Wahaha sure makes a blazing hot and dusty summer afternoon in Beijing more bearable
