Most is just local tap water bottled and sold with ton's of hype.

Good to use in a pinch but not worth thinking any of it is special. Unless you live where the tap water is pure shit tasting. Personal history , San Diego (National City) in the 50's or Midland/Odessa Texas in the late 70's I would if given a chance not even brush my teeth with that water. The smart/lucky ones had or knew someone that had a sweet water well.

My bottled water of choice is Mountain Valley Spring Water, the reason I drink it is because it's one of the last types of bottled water that is glass bottled. This way I don't have to worry about any kind of plastic leaching into the water. Yes, it's expensive, but when chilled this is the best tasting water I've ever had. I buy it by the case. However, the OP site gives this water a D because the website and the bottle label don't provide a full spectrum of comprehensive information. Even though, I'd drink this water than any of the A-rated brands that come in plastic bottles.

I know it's cheaper, but filtered tap just doesn't taste as good as naturally pure sping water. I don't know what it is, but I can tell the difference.

I have the CA version, the Propur. Berkey is banned here. My opinion, the filtered water tastes better than any bottled water I have ever tried. It's great tasting water. I imagine the Berkey to be at least as good if not better.
