Yes, they do, depending... Natural water wasn't meant to have an
absolute lack of flavor. Distilled sterile water and RO water taste
"flat", with no other characteristic than that of being wet.

OTOH, our local water is so heavy with minerals as to be nearly unfit to
drink, at least when it comes to taste. I use bottled spring water for
most things, including brewing coffee and tea.
