What causes a metallic taste?

In my experience, low quality or improperly fermented tobacco. There is a certain metallic quality I associate with cheap dominican leaf. Take note of the origin of all the tobaccos and which brands that you're finding it in, then try to steer away from those in the future. Everyone's palate differs and some cigars will taste awful to one guy while it is delicious to another, so the best thing to do is to take notes and keep track of what you're smoking and what you like as you develop your palate.
