Description

An apple-flavored essence for tobacco and its preparation method and application

technical field

The invention belongs to the technical field of tobacco production, and in particular relates to an apple-flavored essence for tobacco and a preparation method and application thereof.

Background technique

At present, the types of tobacco flavors include four categories: natural flavors, synthetic flavors, isolated flavors and browning reaction flavors; and tobacco flavors formulated from tobacco flavors are specially used for flavoring tobacco products, so its requirements It is different from ordinary food flavors, because it needs to be coordinated with the smoke after being added to cigarettes to improve the taste of cigarettes and increase flavor without increasing miscellaneous gas and peculiar smell. Therefore, many flavors used in food, beverages, cosmetics, etc. cannot be used directly. Cigarette production.

With the improvement of modern living standards, the taste of cigarettes has been continuously improved, and the taste has also been continuously improved. Smokers have more and more requirements for cigarette flavors. Healthy, natural fruit flavor flavors that can improve the taste of cigarettes have not been reported.

Apples are rich in crude fiber, sugars, polyphenols, flavonoids and other substances. Their characteristic aroma can relieve the mental stress of the human body and also have the effect of refreshing the brain. Apple fragrance contains organic components such as alcohol and ester, and its unique flavor cannot be artificially synthesized. Chinese patent ZL03112555.7 discloses a "preparation method of high-power natural apple essence", which overcomes the problems of easy generation of peculiar smell and low concentration in the preparation process of apple essence, but this apple essence has strong volatility, poor stability, Low production efficiency and high cost are not convenient for direct use in cigarette production.

Contents of the invention

The object of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, and provide an apple-flavor type cigarette flavor that comes from natural fruits, has stable properties, low cost and unique fragrance.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the above flavoring essence for tobacco.

Another object of the present invention is to provide the application of the flavoring essence for tobacco.

The present invention realizes above-mentioned object of the invention through following technical scheme:

An apple-flavored essence for tobacco is made of the following substances by weight percentage:

5-30% of apple juice; 4-20% of amino acid; 0.5-5% of malic acid; 0.5-5% of acetaldehyde;

In order to better realize the purpose of the present invention, the present invention preferably adopts the apple juice prepared by the following method to prepare the tobacco essence; the preparation method of the apple juice comprises the following steps:

Beating and crushing apples to obtain apple slurry; adding compound plant hydrolase Viscozyme L with a weight of 0.1‰～6‰ and 0.1‰～6‰ pectinase to hydrolyze the apple slurry to obtain an enzymatic solution; pressing and filtering the Enzymolysis solution to obtain apple juice filtrate; evaporating and concentrating the apple juice filtrate to obtain apple juice.

The hydrolysis conditions are: stirring at normal temperature, the speed is 5-40 r/min, and the hydrolysis time is 1-6 hours.

The Brix of the apple juice is preferably 10-40.

The amino acid is selected from any one of glutamic acid, glycine, proline, valine or alanylglycine or a mixture of two or more mixed in any weight ratio.

The preparation method of the above-mentioned apple-flavored essence for tobacco comprises the following steps:

(1) Using glycerol with a water content of 10-40% by weight as a reaction medium, adding amino acids, malic acid and acetaldehyde to apple juice to prepare a mixed solution;

(2) Maillard reaction is carried out on the obtained mixed solution to obtain the apple flavor type tobacco flavor.

The pH value of the mixed solution in the above step (1) is preferably 4.0-7.0; the pH value can be adjusted by phosphoric acid or potassium hydroxide.

The conditions for the Maillard reaction in the above step (2) are: under a sealed environment, the temperature is 90-125° C., the stirring speed is 10-30 r/min, and the reaction time is 1.5-4 hours.

The invention also provides the application of the apple-flavor type tobacco essence, which is to add the tobacco essence to the leaf group formula at a ratio of 0.1‰-5‰ of the leaf group weight and apply it in tobacco production.

The beneficial effect of the present invention is that a reactive flavor that can be successfully applied in tobacco production is prepared from natural fruit, and the natural flavor of apple is taken and added to the tobacco leaf formula to make the smoke more mellow , delicate, and has a certain modification effect on the shape of the smoke. The invention further determines the addition ratio of the essence, reduces thorns and removes impurities, and improves the comfort of the smoke to the oral and nasal cavities; at the same time, it makes the aroma more abundant and gives an apple-shaped flavor. Fragrance, which can improve the aroma and aroma of cigarettes.

Detailed ways

The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific examples.

Example 1

Preparation of apple juice: 1Kg of commercially available apples is beaten and crushed to obtain 1000 g of apple pulp (almost no loss); 1 g of compound plant hydrolytic enzyme Viscozyme L and 6 g of pectinase are added to the apple pulp to hydrolyze the apple pulp to obtain an enzymatic solution; squeeze filtering the enzymatic solution to obtain apple juice filtrate; evaporating the apple juice filtrate to obtain apple juice. Since the sugar content of the apple juice needs to be increased in order to improve the apple flavor of the essence, the double-effect evaporator is used in this embodiment to evaporate and concentrate the prepared apple juice to obtain an apple juice concentrate with a Brix of 10.

Example 2
