Distilled water contains only hydrogen and oxygen molecules and it doesnt contain any of the minerals that normal water contains. Normal water contains minerals such as calcium and iron.
It probably tastes so bad because the minerals have been taken out of it.
I hope this helped :)

Controls must be of identical composition in order to avoid affecting the outcome of an experiment.
