Green tea...

Yes, it is 'hard' water and 'lime' as you stated. Many here use the bottled/filtered spring water. There is not only a concentrate of chlorine but fluoride as well. Water quality/taste can be prevalent and not always pleasant. However, I don't look at a gift horse in the mouth. The clean water on tap is something that many in the world do not enjoy on a regular basis if at all.

Yes, sure, and as I said: I think for a more robust drink like coffee or espresso it makes little difference (at least my tongue cannot tell it). But tea like this is subtle, and if you can choose between waters, make use of that option, and use the better one.
