The one bottled water that I checked because it tasted like bleach (Bar Le Duc) turned out to have about 1000 times as much chlorine in it as reported in our local tap water. Added on purpose to increase shelf life.
Bottled water always tastes chemical to me, but that stuff is probably usable as a light bleach.
I can't imagine why any Dutch would drink bottled water, as our water supply is far cleaner than the bottled stuff. I only buy Spa because their bottles are so damn convenient. And I get some free water with that bottle!
