No, it's not. The main tastes we detect are sweet, sour, salty, bitter and something called umami -- a meaty taste associated with glutamate and protein-rich foods. It was identified about a hundred years ago by Kikunae Ikeda in Japan. Greasyis simply a consistency of food, which can accompany any of these flavors. Another way of thinking about it is that it's similar to hot/cold, or crunchy.

Sweet foods and greasy foods contain high levels of calories and energy, which were beneficial for our ancestors to survive and thrive. Our brain is wired to find these foods pleasurable as a way to encourage consumption of high-calorie foods for energy storage.
