Abstract: | "Dianhong tea (DHT) is popular for its pleasant caramel-like aroma. In this study, the aroma profile of high-grade DHT have been studied using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) combined with headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME). A total of 52 aroma-active compounds were identified by GC-O coupled with aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) and odor specific magnitude estimation (Osme). Among them, quantification of 21 aroma-active compounds indicated that the content of linalool (5928 microg/kg) was the highest in high-grade DHT, followed by phenylethanol (3923 microg/kg) and phenylacetaldehyde (1801 microg/kg). Sensory-directed aroma recombination and omission tests further verified that phenylacetaldehyde, linalool, geraniol and 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine were important contributors to the overall sensory characteristics of high-grade DHT which dominated mainly by floral, sweet and caramel-like odors. This work will provide a theoretical reference for comprehensively understanding the aroma characteristic of DHT" |
