Right so don't mock the som, mock the people buying into it, right?
About the right time to mention the associated Penn & Teller "Bullshit" episode.

Yeah, water tastes different from different sources. I can tell that by drinking water from my well, then drinking from the city water source. However I am also not willing to pay for that difference.

I wonder if there are kits you can buy in the store to measure water quality like bacterial hard/soft etc. Would be nice if there was a built in mechanism to upload tap water data with GPS coords which would then show on an online map
I don't think people's reaction to the water sommelier is derision — maybe more "what kind of idiot do you take me for?"
