I still use plain old grocery store dry powdered fruit pectin, found in the canning section. Mix with just enough cool/room temp distilled water(same spray bottle I use when re-casing leaf)until it looks moist, let it sit a few minutes and stir , add a small spritz until it becomes the consistency of snot. I only make enough to use when I'm rolling ,which is only about 1/2 tsp of dry pectin per about 6 cigars. no smell , no taste and no funny color .
Are you saying there's no odd taste in the cigars rolled with pectin or there's no odd taste in the pectin itself ?
Have you put your finger in the solution of pectin and tasted it directly? No sense of bitterness coming through?
