I wonder if people who much prefer carbonated water over still water have ever had actually good tasting still water e.g. straight from a natural spring? Because a lot of bottled and tap water tastes ASS.
IMO there's nothing more refreshing than good still water, and carbonation kinda ruins it for me. And there is (rarely) bottled water that tastes great (Bad Liebenwerda meine Perle), and tap water depends on the region, piping and a lot of stuff.
But yeah, I'd be genuinely curious.
