Did not know where to ask this one. Move it if you need to Sparks. What do you guys/gals use to cleanse your palate when trying a new blend of tobacco?

Water to cleanse. Milk to taste.

Club soda with mint leaves works nice for me.

Water to cleanse the pallet no and then during smoking.
Nothing before smoking to cleanse the pallet - but sounds like a good idea.

Water for me too. Then it’s either an Earl Grey tea or scotch to pair depending on the time of day. One day I’ll try a glass of milk!

Water. Coffee while smoking. I just think it enhances the flavor. Maybe I'm nuts.

Sperrytops we are all nuts after about 8 months of Covid. Thank you for your suggestions. I used the water one earlier today and will use it again in about 20 min. Going to sit down and have a smoke with Joff on chat not in person. Blackhouse tonight I think first time fir either of us.

While I was smoking the Magnum Opus I had a sudden thought that milk might taste really good with it. I think it would have reminded me of a hearty bread pudding with raisins. I was too lazy to go in an get a glass. |

Considering that I can't taste smoke without retrohaling, no palate cleansing is necessary.

Other Distinguished members have mentioned Dr. Pepper.
I use 1% milk. Because with new tobacco I get a light coating on the tongue. This prevents tongue bite. And not being too thick I can taste the tobacco.
Milk goes exceptionally well with a peach 🍑 flavor.
Sorry. I ramble at times.

Just as with wine, I eat a little piece of bread. White, a piece of baguette, preferably. A small slice, finally.

A large shot of good single-malt Irish to cleanse the mouth. Another to ready the palate. By then you can forget about the tobacco...

So I am smoking Verge Engine and it has a strong citrus taste too it. I put some milk in a cup and sipped it. Took the citrus right down to a more enjoyable level. Thank you

Since my pipe smoking is invariably accompanied by either strong black coffee, Scotch, Bourbon, a Gibson, or Vodka & Tonic, I wouldn't know what to do if my palate ever was cleansed. This is as clean as it's ever going to get.

I can add nothing but more of the same. Water the great majority of the time. Sometimes coffee.

Palate cleansing? Usually when I'm smoking, it's with a beer.
