Artino Chinese QuDi Flute C-major

I have never played the flute before so this was a first try for me. After some fiddling it makes a nice sound and plays well. The sound is very airy and it responds well to overblowing. The only thing I do not like is that after a few minutes of playing, the flute starts to smell and taste like coffee. As a dizi beginner there were very little instructions with the flute, no fingering chart, nor any instructions for how to apply the dimu membrane. I decided to use a piece of tape instead which has worked well for learning.
