Definition
回味无穷 is a four-character idiom (chengyu) that literally means 'the aftertaste is endless.' You use it to describe an experience — a meal, a movie, a conversation, a trip — that leaves a lasting, pleasant impression that you keep thinking about long after it's over. It's not used for literal taste only; it applies to any memorable experience that lingers in your mind.
