astringence
Astringence, also known as astringency, is a sensory phenomenon characterized by a rough, dry feeling in the mouth, typically after consuming certain foods, drinks, medicine, or products. It is caused by the contraction of body tissues, particularly mucus membranes. This sensation is usually due to the presence of tannins or other polyphenols.
