Why did you use "coniunctivi" here? Efee?

gustetur = relative clause with a consecutive meaning (--> conjunctive)
ministretur = ipotetic clause dependent from a subordinate (--> conjunctive)

Hmmm, Efee. According to Lilian's bridge I would use here simple MODUS REALIS with indicative... ?

"quod magis gustatur" means "what is more tasted" (strange meaning)

So, if we want to say that "sth tastes to sb" or "sb likes (the test of) sth" we should use another verb, for example: dulci/suavi sapore esse -in appropriate grammatical form of course... You can do this for sure...
