Vaping results in what is known as “vaper's tongue.” Vaping leads to dehydration and also dries your mouth, both of which can diminish your taste buds. Smoking or vaping can also cause a stuffy nose and negatively impact your ability to smell, and being able to smell goes hand in hand with your ability to taste.

Can you lose taste from nicotine?

Smoking can damage your taste buds and your sense of smell, both of which affect how you taste. This damage isn't permanent, unlike some of the other side effects of smoking.
