This is one of those "fun facts" that most people have probably heard several times before. It's repeated so much that it's basically common knowledge. Yet for some reason, in our visceral experience we instinctively continue to associate taste with the tongue. It's the most logical inference based on the cause and effect: food goes into mouth, which triggers sensation of taste; therefore tongue produces taste.
Nevertheless, I think your distinction is helpful.
