I had attributed this to either my aging or as a result of a head cold.
Neither my wife nor my son had noticed a difference. Yesterday, we tasted tap water verse bottled water and all selected the bottled water as better.
This morning, I brewed the coffee using bottled spring water and I didn't notice the odor and the coffee tasted much better to my wife and myself.
Partly in jest, I am wondering if this is part of getting old and cantankerous, or is this noticeable to others?

Our water had a horrible odor and taste when we moved here. Anytime we made coffee, tea, boiled pasta it wasn't good. We bought a water filtration system. No more bad taste or smell.
