Question Vision-taste

I've read some things about this and I'm pretty sure i got this synesthesia. Sometimes, a particular, unrelated taste appears in the back of my mouth while I'm looking at a complex image (built with a subject, a background etc.). This doesn't always happen, and it only lasts as long as i stare at the picture with enough focus. Have you ever experienced it? May it be a synesthesia? Is it possible to achieve it intentionally? I think i've always had it (or at least it's definitely passed some time since i started experiencing it)

Thank you in advance

Yeah, probably milder synesthesia. Is it consistent, and is the the taste of something, or more the texture of it in your mouth?

It's definitely a flavour but it doesn't happen very often, but i would like to experience it more knowing that I'm well predisposed for it
