Here is my theory. Keep in mind I'm only in Highschool.
Color:Hydrogen's atomic spectrum is not visible to the human eye therefore we cannot see it. The atomic spectrum of an atom allows us to identify the property of that atom.
Taste:The taste is determined by minerals in the water. If the water has no minerals then the taste you "don't taste" is an actual taste.
Some people would disagree with the statement "water has no taste". Indeed, the French bottled water market is thriving, whereupon the concept of a "water sommelier" has developed, as have restaurants where their main USP is the number of brands of water they stock. In France, it is not uncommon to hear people debating which brand of water tastes best.
Pure water is clear/colourless due to distillation practices. (Similarly for vodka, although the type of distillation is different). For example, imagine that you're out camping and your only source of water is pretty muddy. But you can boil it and collect the vapours which rise from the muddy water, so that the water you drink is clear again.

No, it tastes like water often does.
the difference is that natrual water has not been treated and has nothing in it to make it taste the way it tastes but treated water on the other hand probaly has something in it like sugar or something else
It probably tastes like everything and nothing in particular.
it looks similar to one, but tastes nothing like a raspberry.
I tastes the same, trust me i have had experience. it tastes like a regular olive.
Rainwater is actually fresh water.So it will taste like the water you drink.(unless you drink water with salt!)
Port and Madeira are in the same family, but nothing really tastes like Sherry but Sherry.
