tart flavor
Sharp citrus sensation
A tart flavor is sharp and acidic, the taste of citrus, green apples, or vinegar.
Tartness registers as a bright, mouth-puckering sensation distinct from bitterness.
The term often carries positive connotations—a tart flavor can wake up a dish or balance sweetness: The lemon added a tart flavor to the glaze.
