Upon casting this spell and touching the tongue to the target, the spellcaster is immediately provided with a sensation identical to having tasted the target themselves. Beyond the standard five (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami), the caster fully experiences the flavor including any olfactory information that is typically associated with 'taste,' and any physical sensations such as heat, cold, numbing or tingling, or similar. However, the caster is able to avoid being poisoned or affected in any way that would happen had they actually ingested the target.
A caster who is proficient with skills or tools associated with the target (such as alchemy, brewing, survival, or a poisoner's toolkit) can attempt to further identify the target substance if it would be considered obscure or unusual, with a DC set by the DM based on the target.
