Forever After Taste

[OSOBUCO]

Since I have been regularly (for me that's a few times a week, mostly weekends) I notice that I have a sweet taste in my mouth for days after a bowl. It's not a bad thing and is quite enjoyable but I am wondering if anyone else notices this. I have been a wine addict of sorts for 30 years and I love a great wine with a long finish but I never had one go on for days!!! Peace -

I've never noticed something like that.

Brushing your teeth once in awhile will fix that ?

Days? No. Overnight? Yes.

 

[VirginiaMan]

Yeah I’ve had it for a day or so, but no longer.

 

[Kobold]

Maybe a little bit when I first wake up after having a pipe the night before but definitely not for days.

 

[briarbuda48]

Never had that happen. I don’t know if that is a blessing or a curse.

Yeah, I've never had an 'aftertaste' last pass a tooth brush.. . Or even just a quick mouthwash rinse for that matter.

Clearing your sinuses will help too.

Pipes make my mouth taste horrible.. especially latakia. I wake up trying to find the cat that obviously has slept and shitted in my mouth during the night.

Very Cherry left a long lasting cherry ‘essence’ for me back in the day. That, and tongue bite! (I was still very new to the hobby when I bought it!)

The only blend I've known to do this, is Pegasus. That shit lingers for 3 to 4 days. Sheesh.

I tried some Pegasus once. Never again.

 

[Chasing Embers]

Never had a taste linger more than an hour or so.

I tried some Pegasus once. Never again.

When I first hit Pegasus I was like WTF and put it in the basement but during my last bout with Covid I was smoking whatever for the Nic ( couldn’t taste anything anyway why not smoke the gnar) as 50% taste came back I rather liked it , we’ll see when 100% comes back. I can finally taste a bit of Burley again got some solani aged in the cart , here’s hoping the tastes comes back…

Thanks all - it must just be me. I am one of those with hyper senses. Taste, smell, hearing, vision. I am 57 and my eyesight is 20-13. It has gotten better with age, except reading. taste and smell are off the charts (thankfully back after COVID). It's both a blessing and a curse as you might imagine. Anyway, the sweetness is very subtle but it is there and I like it. -peace

Years ago, when I was smoking mostly Tinder Box aromatics, which are re-labeled blends from major brands, I got some residual aftertastes, like the next day, that were not sweet nor pleasant. It moderated my smoking to a few bowls a week. After quitting pipes and smoking for a few years, when I came back to it, I smoked more non-aromatics, and I did not get the aftertaste.

Interesting - i actually get the after taste even with non Aros - say Boswells Northwoods. I think it must be the sugars in the tobacco hyper-activating my buds - OR I am losing my mind. Don't ask my wife to answer that question.

Years ago, someone on a pipe board recommended Biotene toothpaste. I did and never went back. And no, never had this happen.

 

[monty55]

Sweet? That's interesting.
But I suppose it could be worse, @Old_Newbie has had to quit for a while because all the tobacco was tasting salty...
If someone comes down with a case of spiciness, we'd have a dish!
All kidding aside I hope your mouth settles down brother. Keep us posted.
