The taste of the water is is fine. (I still love Fugi Water best but for the price) the only fault I see with True Clear is the plastic bottles do not set flat and the plastic is very soft and fold before you finish the bottle. I would tell people about the water but also inform to people my concerns.
Enjoying a glass of my favorite Makers Mark Bourbon can be ruined by having ice cubes with a stale or impure taste. That's why my ice tray will only be filled with True Clear Purified Water. Anything less would be like grilling my grass-fed fillets with store brand BBQ sauce instead of the tangy sweetness of Brooks Oneonta 51 Sauce.
