Scenting tea with is beneficial to forming a unique taste of jasmine tea, which is regulated by numerous compounds. To investigate the relationship between metabolites in jasmine and jasmine tea, as well as the impact of metabolites on the characteristic taste of jasmine tea, the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, sensory evaluation, and multivariate analysis were applied in this study. A total of 585 and 589 compounds were identified in jasmine tea and jasmine, respectively. After scented, jasmine tea added 70 compounds, which were believed to come from jasmine flowers. Furthermore, seventy-four compounds were identified as key characteristic compounds of jasmine tea, and twenty-two key differential metabolite compounds were believed to be used to distinguish jasmine tea scented differently and contribute to the taste of jasmine tea. Additionally, the relationship between taste compounds and aroma quality was also explored, and it was found that five compounds were positively correlated with the aroma properties of jasmine tea and seven compounds were negatively correlated with the aroma properties of jasmine tea. Overall, these findings provided insights into the future study of the mechanism of taste formation in jasmine tea and provided the theoretical basis for the production of jasmine tea.

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

Food Chem

Key Laboratory of Ministry of Education for Genetics, Breeding and Multiple Utilization of Crops, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou 350002, Fujian, China. Electronic address:

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.
