Explanation:

Our perception of flavor is based on aroma, and the five basic tastes: sweet, salty, bitter, sour and savory. Pure water does not contain compounds that elicit any of these tastes, and has a neutral scent, so we deem it "tasteless.

Water alone is a colourless, tasteless, and odourless liquid, but upon standing it takes on the traces of carbon dioxide in the air and tends toward a sour solution of carbonic acid that is unpleasant-tasting and more inhospitable to life

water is tasteless because there are no minerals or trace elements.

hope this may helps you.
