Your sense of taste is connected to your ability to smell. If your nasal passages are blocked, lets say because of a cold or the flu, your ability to taste will be impaired. Smokers regularly report that their sense of taste is diminished, probably as a result of continual tobacco use. There is no definitive data suggesting that we lose our sense of taste as we age.
