Cloth-Eared?

Ok, we have a good expression for people who don't "get" music, or just don't listen to instructions or sage advice.

I'm looking for a similar pithy expression for the sense of taste. It needs to say "this person has no appreciation of flavour and is immune to the cajoling of wiser and more experienced drinkers." 

I think it would be quite useful for drinkers of Fosters and for my mother who, at Christmas, will treat herself to a whisky-and-tonic.

Many Thanks.

Quite literally, they have no "taste"?

Fur-tongued?

Farley-tongued (as in the rusks)

...or the same but different, 'Rusk-palate'. I'll shut up now.

I tend to say they have a wooden palate.

Dead-tongued. Dead from the mouth in.

Or simply Dead.
