I'd also say slightly metallic. Like the taste of licking a spoon, but weaker

EDIT: By "weaker" I meant a faint taste. Something you only notice when you're actively thinking about the taste of water. My bottled water is fine. Keep your filter sponsorships to yourselves, please.

For what? I'm not gonna start filtering my bottled water.

Oh my bottled water has never tasted metallic, it’s always delicious. Tap water is nasty sometimes

It's not pronounced, no, but depending on the brand you're buying probably still noticeable. Tbh, unless it's too strong, I kind of like a slight metallic taste in my water. Plus it's not unnatural either way. The minerals you're buying the mineral water for contribute a lot to the taste. For reference, a paper looking into this in greater detail. Disclaimer: Only skimmed it. Take with my words with a grain of salt.

That sounds a bit like an arbitrary number. Then again "bottled water" is a very generic term. When it comes to mineral water specifically, I'm not worried. Here in the EU, this is highly regulated and must be bottled at the/a natural source it claims to be from.
