To identify and analyze the characteristics of the microorganisms involved in the formation of the desirable flavor of , a total of 179 strains were isolated from ninety-four collected from six regions in South Korea, and fourteen strains were selected through a sensory evaluation of the aroma of each culture. The enzyme activities of amylase, protease and lipase was shown in the various strains. sp.-K3, sp.-K4 and -J2 showed relatively high protease activity, at 317.1 U, 317.3 U and 319.5 U, respectively. The sp.-K1 showed the highest lipase activity at 2453.6 U. In the case of amylase, -H6 showed the highest activity at 4105.5 U. The results of the PCA showed that -H2, -H3, and sp.-K2 were closely related to the production of 3-hydroxy-2-butanone (23.51%~43.37%), and that -H5 and -J2 were significantly associated with the production of phenethyl alcohol (0.39% and 0.37%). The production of peptides was observed to vary among the cultures such as Val-Val-Pro-Pro-Phe-Leu and Pro-Ala-Glu-Val-Leu-Asp-Ile. These peptides are precursors of related volatile flavor compounds created in via the enzymatic or non-enzymatic route; it is expected that these strains could be used to enhance the flavor of .

Chrysanthemum infusion has gained popularity outside of the East Asian market in recent years. However, despite the growing international demand, standardized methods to evaluate the sensory attributes of chrysanthemum tea, which are essential for guiding consumers and ensuring quality control, remain underdeveloped. In this study, a trained panel conducted a quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA®) of eight chrysanthemum samples, successfully distinguishing between them.
