After smoking, I have a terrible aftertaste in my mouth. Is this normal?
The aftertaste you're experiencing could be caused by several things, such as a sour pipe, the tobacco, or personal factors unique to you. Many smokers appreciate the lingering flavor or a subtle aftertaste from their tobacco. But as with many things when you're new to them, pipe smoking takes a little getting used to.

However, the experience should not be unpleasant. So if you're not enjoying it, I would recommend trying a different tobacco, since this is by far the most common cause of an unpleasant aftertaste. Some tobaccos produce exceptionally strong and long-lasting aftertastes. Others are more mild and produce only a very mellow aftertaste, if any.
If you're still not enjoying it after trying several tobaccos (and making sure your pipe is clean and fresh), it may simply be that pipe smoking is not for you.
