It tastes great because we live where groundwater is safe and clean. We've had the water tested for contaminates twice since the initial test required for the building permit about six-years ago. The health department gave us a clean report just last year.

Again, this is my 50th year of drinking well water in this area. My kids are smart and normal. I'm 71 and have no health problems attributable to tainted water, and I still can't stand the smell or flavor of processed city water in the area. And I've never paid a water bill and only replaced one well-pump and that was due to a lightning strike.
