So far you seem to be the only person to even mention OP's actual question... But the answer reads like nonsense to me personally.
What is it like to enjoy sourness? (Is that even something that can be described?)
Given acidity is one of the 5 basic characteristics of wine, I suspect people, even adults, have been enjoying sour flavors for a few thousand years. Also, preserves have tended to be sweet, salty, or, you guessed it, sour for a long time, as well. They only thing that has really changed is our delivery vehicle for sour snacks.
Hmm. That may partially explain why every time I've tried to taste wine I ended up spitting it out.
Suck a lemon. Actually that sounds good maybe I'll go do that
I'm curious if it's possible to explain how that's enjoyable to you
Probably not, it's a matter of taste. No joke, I think it tastes good and do it all the time
