However, in the method using such a solvent, there is a problem in that a large amount of impurities such as chlorophyll, sugars, and amino acids are co-extracted in addition to the sweet component phyozultin. For example, dried sweet tea leaves extracted with warm water have a greenish-brown color.
It has a strong odor unique to sweet tea, and has complex flavors such as bitterness in addition to sweetness. Moreover, the extract extracted with ethanol or chloroform exhibits a deep black border color. Therefore, it was necessary to further purify these extracts by decolorizing, re-extracting, etc. In addition, organic solvents as extraction solvents are toxic,
There were problems in terms of flammability, and furthermore, there was a problem in that it was difficult to completely remove it from the extract.

First, dried sweet tea leaves or U tea crude extract are placed in a pressure-resistant extractor 1, and carbon dioxide from a carbon dioxide cylinder 2 is cooled and pressurized through a cooler 3 and a pump 4, and extracted in a supercritical or liquefied state. Supply to vessel 1. Preferably, the pressure in the extractor 1 is less than about 500 bar and the temperature is less than 150°C. Also, the density of carbon dioxide is 0.39/c
Since the extract cannot be extracted below lIi, it is necessary to select pressure and temperature conditions that will ensure a density higher than this. Considering the extraction efficiency, the density of carbon dioxide is 0.5
g/crd or more is desirable. The dissolution of sweet tea extract in carbon dioxide is proportional to the pressure and temperature of carbon dioxide, and as the pressure and temperature increase, the amount of dissolved wI increases. but,
Since it is necessary to suppress thermal denaturation of the hot taste component, the upper limit of the temperature is preferably 150°C, and the upper limit of the pressure should be about 400 bar from the viewpoint of the pressure resistance of the apparatus. In addition, the solubility of tea extract No. 11 is proportional to the density of carbon dioxide, and in order to increase the extraction value with respect to the use of carbon dioxide 81 and improve economic efficiency, it is desirable to set it to 0.5 g/cy+1 or more. The extraction time is appropriately set in the range of several minutes to several hours.

The sweet tea extract extracted in this way was in the form of a pale yellow paste containing white needle-like crystals, and no chlorophyll was observed to be extracted. This extract had a very strong taste, and the solution dissolved in hot water was a clear solution with almost no sweet tea odor and a strong sweet taste. Therefore,
This extract is of high quality with extremely low content of impurities such as sugars and amino acids other than phyllodultin.
It was found that decolorization and purification were not necessary. Further, it goes without saying that carbon dioxide as a solvent is completely volatilized and does not remain. Furthermore, when a crude sweet tea extract is used as the extract, a sweet extract with good flavor is similarly obtained and decolorized and purified.
