1) Plug your nose, take a 2 oz shot glass full of it,
2) without unplugging your nose, and chase with 8 oz of pure, filtered water.
3) Unplug your nose and you will barely taste or smell anything.
Capish?
The water rinses out your mouth, then dilutes the dose in your stomach so you get the benefit without the experience you're trying to avoid.
Like a cheat code.
Taste is sweet, sour, salty and tart, sensed by the toungue directly. Flavour is everything else that comes from the smell of the thing, through the nose...two different things. Rinsing the toungue clears the flavours but does not do much for the taste.
SLOW IS SMOOTH
SMOOTH IS FAST.
