It just tends to be a small amount of chlorine that you can’t taste when you’re used to it. I’m from the Alps and our water is actually not chlorinated and I often say I can taste the chlorine in the water but the locals will usually be like ‘what are you talking about?’ Examples where I tasted chlorine but locals didn’t are Scotland, Germany, Italy, France
interesting. we had our own well when i grew up, and i’ve had allergic reactions to chlorinated water before so i’m super sensitive to it. i remember the water tasting off in london and eastern germany but it doesn’t at home and it didn’t when i visited austria. last time i was in north america and unprepaired for the tap water, it made me gag.
Austria is where I’m from :) yeah England and Germany aren’t too bad, I taste the chlorine, but I’ll still drink the water. I begrudgingly opted for bottled water in North America too, though. Couldn’t handle it. Even the chlorine smell during a shower was annoying, I had never noticed that anywhere else.
