Try to have discrimination (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taste

This clue is a triple definition!

'try' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'to have' is the second definition.
(tasting is a kind of having)

'discrimination' is the third definition.
(taste is a kind of discrimination)

(Other definitions for taste that I've seen before include "Liking (for)" , "The ability to discern good quality" , "Small portion" , "Sample the flavour" , "Show sense" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
