Maybe keep track on a sheet of paper or an excel file and make note of whether or not your sinus' were bothering you and whether or not you used a decongestant and how the cigar tasted each time you have one.

After a few cigars you should start building up enough info to know if that's the problem. Other than that, are you eating or drinking anything specific before or during your cigar? Food and beverages can also affect flavor.
I've not sprayed decongestant and they taste bad and then sprayed decongestant and there was no change really. One day when they tasted great I had drank a hoppy beer before so I thought that might be the trick but tried it again one day and it was more of the same. I thought since I drink coffee maybe that was it but can't really see a correlation
