    Welcome to food aesthetics and communication, where things make even less sense than in other realms of perception. I've been at it for years and it only gets weirder and more frustrating.

    Long story short, current language is severely impoverished in descriptors for food, and a combination of flavors does not sum to make a taste, so i think this whole "there's basic names for flavors" is already a bit of a lost battle.
