I found the adhesive residue from the micropore tape to be a bit annoying so I tried the paper tape as someone suggested. The paper stuff I bought is must less porous than the other, but does not leave any residue. I can't say I've noticed any flavor from either. Try different brands and see if there's one with the flavor you savor!

Maybe you can use the paper tape and instead of taping horizontally across your mouth you can use a couple verticle strips. This could solve the problem regarding permeability you mention.
