Great article!! Entertaining and enlightening.]]>Jul 23rd 2009 5:25PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2009/07/24/glassware-youre-doing-it-wrong/http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/24/glassware-youre-doing-it-wrong/
I'm curious as to the use of the word umami in this context. As far as I know, umami is one of the 5 basic tastes sensed by receptors on the tongue. It specifically deals with the detection of the carboxylate anion of glutamic acid, a naturally occurring amino acid common in meats, cheese, broth, stock, and other protein-heavy foods. [1]

I've never had wine that shares characteristics with this food. And I've never before seen usage of this word to describe the "feel" inside of ones mouth. Maybe I'm missing a particular etymology.

Could you please clarify? Thanks.]]>Jul 26th 2009 12:08AMhttp://www.luxist.com/2009/07/24/glassware-youre-doing-it-wrong/http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/24/glassware-youre-doing-it-wrong/All and all a good wine glass DOES make a difference.
