Distilled water is said (I've not drunk any) to be tasteless. Domestic tap water has impurities in it depending on its source (hard or soft water, for instance) and chloride is added to disinfect the water and make it safe to be sent to the drinking water taps of the population. Some people won't drink tap water due to the chemicals in it, and prefer to drink bottles of natural spring water bought from a supermarket.
