Trouble tasting flower after a year of smoking just concentrate

I’ve been a daily smoker for about 20 years. But for around the past year, I’ve strictly smoked concentrates, I always dab.

Came back to flower this week, wanting to taste the real flavors in the flower that I only got from smoking a joint or bowl. But my taste buds seem to have changed. I’ve tried three premium strains, smell amazing in grinder, even a dry air pull from a joint is wonderful.

my issue is that I can no longer taste anything but smoke coming back from the dabs. Whatever the paper, glass piece , all the smoke taste like cigarettes to me, all smoke tasting, gotta spit after every pull, and I have zero enjoyment from the flavors and aroma from the flower.

has anyone experienced something similar? If I just push through it for a while will the taste of the bud come back and not taste like a cigarette or is this just something that will forever be now.

when I use my pax and vape I get a flavor , all bud though has the same flavor in the pax.

not sure if there’s something I can do, or not do, I just want to enjoy a regular joint like I used to.

I’ve used several papers, bongs and glass… taste is not there

opinions?

I went from an oz per two weeks to half oz dabs. Costed the same. Lungs way better shape. Im not as strain picky. Cutting back finally after 1.5 years to convert to dabbing on my own rosin farm that should barely be about enough to take over.

Will at the worse buy for 1-2 weeks tops. I rather do that then grow some bud and go back to bud with only 1-3 dabs at evening.

I thought it was obnoxious at first but found what I said. Besides I take mental health meds that took away potency to weed anyway.

This is by far out of 10 years the best medicating experience ever. Taking smaller dabs found I was pretty wasteful and cutting back this last week is nothing like with weed.

Consistent half oz per two weeks and with weed I really struggled to stay under an oz in said time. Struggled to feel zooted too. I actually am seeing if I can dab less than that.

Spent so much on the grow to get way less than I thought for a while to come that its forcing a T break.
