I tried a supposedly fruity IPA, tasted like bitter water. But later I tried some sour fizzy candy which gave off a hint of what they probably taste like, and I was able to pick up the smell of an apparently horrid 'satsuma' shower gel. I thought it smelled very refined and classy but according to my daughter it reeks of citrus-y toilet cleaner. I read that smell training is important in recovering from postviral anosmia so will carry on experimenting.
