If you leave water in a ceramic, glass, or cup it will start to taste bad after a day or two, even if it’s covered with a lid. However, when we pour water out of a tap into a glass it will taste fine, even though it’s been sitting for days/months in a water reserve tank. Why is this the case?

Maybe it’s a combination of smoking the erb’, as well as my preference for strong tasting/spicy foods, but I really don’t think stale water tastes bad. I know it tastes different and generally not as fresh, but it’s sort of like the difference between really good real coffee and instant for me. One is definitely lower quality with some bad notes (e.g. bitterness of instant = staleness of old water), but at the end of the day, if I really want coffee/water, both will do just fine.
My partner can’t STAND stale water and will outright refuse it, whereas I’m fortunate that I can drink shit that’s been left for well over a whole day and not mind at all. Anyone else relate? I don’t have many riveting conversations about stale water habits
