The quality of jasmine tea is related to the volatiles of its infusion. In this study, the volatiles of jasmine tea infusion were extracted under the optimal conditions with a 50/30 μm DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber, tea/water ratio of 1:25 and extraction time of 5 min. A total of 204 volatiles were analyzed by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC-Q-TOF-MS). Twenty-five compounds were identified as the key volatile compounds by fold change (FC), orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), and two-way orthogonal partial least squares analysis (O2PLS). Then optimal amount of flowers (80%-120%) was obtained by the equation describing key volatiles and quality of jasmine tea infusion. And 80% amount of flowers was more appropriate considering the production cost and more pleasant taste. This study laid a foundation for the extraction and research of volatiles of tea infusion and guided the reasonable amount of flowers to produce jasmine tea.

Article Synopsis
  • * Supercritical carbon dioxide (SCD) decaffeination reduces the desirable floral and sweet flavors in tea, leading to a less satisfying taste.
  • * Scenting DTs with fresh jasmine significantly enhances their aroma and flavor, resulting in a rich jasmine taste that can be achieved by using a full amount of jasmine flowers.

Dynamic aroma characteristics of jasmine tea scented with single-petal jasmine "Bijian": A comparative study with traditional double-petal jasmine.

This study investigated the dynamic changes in jasmine tea during the scenting process and explored the differences in the aroma characteristics of jasmine tea scented with single-petal jasmine "Bijian" and traditional double-petal jasmine "Shuangban." Twenty-one key volatile compounds were identified from jasmine tea by headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Compared with the intensely floral and sweet fragrance characteristic of jasmine tea scented with double-petal jasmine "Shuangban," the tea scented with single-petal jasmine "Bijian" exhibited a fresher aroma, which can be attributed to the accumulation of methyl benzoate.

Integrative Science Center of Germplasm Creation in Western China (CHONGQING) Science City, College of Food Science, Southwest University, Chongqing 400715, China.

Enhancing the sensory appeal of jasmine instant tea, particularly its aroma, poses a significant challenge due to the loss of volatile organic compounds during conventional processing. This study introduces a novel approach to address this issue through the application of microencapsulation techniques, aimed at preserving these key aromatic elements. Our investigation focused on the encapsulating agents gelatin, acacia gum, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and maltodextrin, chosen for their compatibility with the volatile organic compounds of tea.
