Wineo, do ya reckon you can taste a flavour from tomatoe paste when it's potstilled only twice?

Just doing a fresh Lime Wash and i've added a sachet of paste as the last brew was a little slow...

I can taste it in mine,but alot of people say they cant taste it.Everyones taste is different.I would think the lime flavor would be dominate anyway.
Mine was just a plain sugar wash,so there wasnt any other flavors to hide it.
