Was out somewhere in Canadistania on vacation back in like 2003.

My family and I were on some glacier, which had a stream of water running down it.

Filled up some empty water bottle I had with me and drank it.

I still have half that waterbottle sitting in my freezer.

athabasca glacier

I live there bruh, can confirm water quality

I live in an era with a shitload of natural springs, so basically ordinary, naturally filtered well water out of my tap.

Ice is really refreshing on a hot day, but water is so flexible I would say it wins out overall. Steam is shit though. Just going to burn the hell out of your mouth.

Well water at my parents cottage. No idea why, it's a fairly standard cottage-by-a-lake type area, but the water just tastes amazing.

>better freeze this water to keep it from spoiling

In recent memory, it's well water from my friend's house in Lakemont, GA.

de-oxygenated water for pipeline injection
tastes like absolutely nothing

In highschool playing football during august and doing two practices a day: being able to drink iced water bottles of hose water was probably the best I've ever drunk.

>>6845641
Water from the house I grew up at in Maine. We had a well that went down like 300+ feet through granite into some big underground reservoir. The water had a ton of minerals and stained all the sinks and clogged up the filter things on the faucets pretty regularly, but it was excellent drinking water.

If I'm thirsty I'd rather have iced water over gatorade especially im outside running around.

15 mile trail hike in Hawaii, ran out of water halfway through because switchbacks on a mountain take more out of you than you think, got back to the car and drank hot melted ice and diet coke residue out of a McDonalds cup.
It was heaven.

bacteria? whats that? keep your liberal disinformation out of my God fearing home!

when I was a kid, a can of Hawaiian Punch was my favorite thrist quencher and then it quickly became Ice Water

Hiking in the North Cascades, drinking from a fast-moving stream from glacier runoff. Felt like Popeye afterwards.

Rainwater from a tropical rainforest

In my experience you can often buy bottled rainwater in towns surrounding a tropical rainforrest

>>6845794
Hawaii punch doesn't come in cans fggt

>>6845808
yes it does

When I lived in the Caribbean, we had a cistern in back of our house and the gutters from around the roof all fed into the cistern to collect the rainwater.

It was ok for drinking, but we always had to make sure to dump some bleach into it every month to make sure there were no parasites or anything.

We also had a well but depending on the time of the year and how much rain we had, it was sometimes kind of brackish so not great for drinking.

The city water was fucking awful desalinated garbage that I refused to ever drink.

OP here, never posted mine. A few years back I had been hiking with some friends of mine in some mountains a little upstate from where we all lived. It was towards the end of winter, but due to the altitude it was still very frozen up there. There were all these little waterfalls which were really just rivulets of melting ice water runoff streaming down the sides of these cliffs. And they were sharp, precipitous kind of cliffs. Beautiful sights. Anyway, the waterfalls. They were all frozen over, but you could see water flowing behind the ice. And I remember while climbing, there was an opening in the ice and I put my lips to it and drank. That was the best water I can remember ever having. I came down with hypothermia a little later in the hike. But for that water, it was completely worth it.

Fresh out of the river in cherynobl. Shit made me feel like the hulk.

The artesian well on my property. No greater filter than muther erff.

I'll buy a jug of store bought water and dump it out to fill with that water.

It comes from over 100 feet below the earth, so its nice and cold even on a hot day.

But I live in a 'flyover' state, I'm sure most of you like your fluoride tap water that makes superior garbage pizza in NYC or whatever the fuck. Stay pleb.

>>6845808
>google? nah, never heard of that shit.
idiot

>>6845725
Water can take on tastes of the container. Cooling it slows this down

Looks fancy, how much does that cost you and where do you cop something like that?

>>6846224
High end bottle water price, I wanna say like $2.79 for a liter. I drank it many years ago and still remember it as the best bottled I've had

>>6845848
fake and gay

>>6846229
I'll be sure to be on the lookout for it, thanks man.

>>6845641
I'm not an autist so I don't make a mental note of when I particularly enjoyed a cup/bottle of water.

>>6846236
:^)

I have not experienced this glacier water or mountain stream water but my well water tastes a ton better than any public water I get from taps at work and stuff. Especially in the winter time when it comes out ice cold almost it is so refreshing and good.

I've always been curious: do americans have soft or hard water? Or is it different from state to state/ city to city?

>>6845782
go defrost and drink that 12 year old water

right now

Peñaclara.

>>6846383
It varies a lot depending on where you are. Sometimes even house to house depending on if they have filters or filtration systems installed or not for the local city water.

>>6846393
Ooh okay. Thank you very much for replying!

>>6846395
i want to fuck your pussy

>>6846398

from a self-drilled well pump at my grandmother
ice cold even in summer
it felt like drinking juicy diamonds that would pop with crystal freshness in your mouth

>>6846398
Don't be mean to me when I was nice

>>6845641
My tap water. It comes from artesian wells, so its rather hard but it tastes great.

>>6846395
You're welcome

Grandpa lived in northern Ontario. He had a well that delivers the cleanest, freshest tasting water.

>>6846420
has he ever seen bigfoot

>>6846422
Different anon.
I have, turns out he's not a missing link or anything. He's just a homeless nigger.

>>6846424
lol..I figured it was a kid from when andre the giant slept with a negro in his younger days and it ran into the woods and is lost forever and doesn't know why every one runs away from him. I bet bigfoot gets some good water

>>6845641

My dad's house has its own well and that's nice compared to regular tap water

I think it's the excess of chalk or whatever it is

I personally find Smart Water to be the most refreshing.

Great stuff guys. Thread's gone really well so far. I have another question. What's your favorite bottled water?

>>6845641
Glacial stream way up in the remote hiking trails in Sequoia National Park.

>>6845641
>tfw live in a city and all I've ever had is shit tier flouride water
>can't bring myself to drink more than a cup a day
Fuck

>>6845641
There's no particular location to it, but any time I've been without a drink and have been working or exercising all day and I get a chance to drink not just water, but cold water? It's glorious.

>>6847492
vodka

>>6847492
>bottled water

>>6845641
It probably had to do more with how thirsty I was but the best water I had ever imbibed in my life was from a natural spring coming right out of the mountain on the Appalachian Trail. Specifically, it was somewhere near Peter's Mountain in Pennsylvania.

Man, I need to get /out/, I haven't been backpacking in ages.

Stanfield Oregon tap water. Tastes just like orange fanta.
