trigeminal

Trigeminus (Nervus trigeminus, Drillingsnerv) is the fifth, very sensitive cranial nerve of the facial skull. Its name is derived from its branching into three main branches, one of which also has olfactory functions. It conveys tactile sensations of the facial region, which are perceived during Alkoholkonsum at the mucous membranes of the oral cavity and the nose. These are irritative sensations of a physical and less chemical nature. They are - just like the haptisch and taktil sensory impressions - not typical Geruch or Geschmack, although the effects contribute significantly to the overall impression.

Taste - Tongue - Nerves

Tongue - Tastes: 1 = umami, 2 = bitter, 3 = sour, 4 = sweet, 5 = salty
