From google

"There are at least 50 different medications that can cause a metallic taste in the mouth. Furthermore, there is a condition known as burning mouth syndrome, which is actually a sensory neuropathy (the nerves that transmit sensations from the mouth - such as information regarding pain, taste and texture - don't seem to work correctly), and this usually occurs in women. The taste component of that condition may present as a "taste phantom", and a metallic taste is not unusual. First check with your doctor to make sure that you are not taking one of the medications that causes metallic taste."


also ketosis can cause that taste which can happen on a low carb diet

If it is a strong taste you should see your doc and have him check you out. Sometimes a tumor can cause phantom tastes and smells.
