General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Good Morning, it sounds like you have some disturbance in smell sensation while drinking water. This disturbance in smell could be from various reasons, commonly dental problems, irregularities in dietary regime, more fatty foods in diet or sometimes acid reflux symptoms can cause this odd sensation of smell. It is advisable you consult a dentist at first instance, if all clear from him then see a Physician.
