Look up terms like "mouth sealers" in flavour chemistry.Then you'll see why the test you refer to is anything but perfect.
Taste tests have an enormous "hangover" in flavour effects due to the chemestry of how you taste, and in what order.
Just for hoots, see what happens when the drink with the pepsin comes first vs. second.
The ear doesn't have the same kind of history.
