- lemon flavor was added, then sterilized at 85 ° C. for 10 minutes, cooled to 5 ° C. and lemon flavored water (pH 6.2 to 6.5, Brix 0.01 to 0.00). 46) was produced. This lemon flavored water was subjecte
- Sensory evaluation is based on the enhancement of flavor compared to the control without addition of polymerized catechin (Extract A), that is, from the viewpoint of the strength of lemon flavor.
- Organic evaluation of enhancement of fragrance on the occasion, enhancement of fragrance of aftertaste (residual scent), fruit flavor is not weak (1 point), unchanged (2 points), slightly strong (3 (Point), strong (4 points), and fairly strong (5 points).
- the optimal concentration of polymerized catechin is 50 ppm or more and less than 500 ppm (0.0050 wt% or more and less than 0.05 wt%), and the flavor is enhanced by using polymerized catechin in combination with flavor (fragrance) at this concentration It was suggested that even a beverage after sterilization exhibits a rich flavor.
- Example 2 Flavor enhancement action of polymerized catechin Lemon-flavored water was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the extract A of Example 1 was replaced with the polymerized catechin (purified product) produced in Production Example 2. That is, after adding polymerized catechin to water in an amount of 0 to 500 ppm, 0.15% of lemon flavor was added, sterilized at 85 ° C. for 10 minutes, cooled to 5 ° C., and lemon flavored water (pH 6.0 to 6.5, Brix 0.01 to 0.05) was produced. This lemon flavored water was subjected to sensory evaluation by three specialized panelists.
- Sensory evaluation is based on the enhancement of flavor compared to the control without addition of polymerized catechin, that is, from the viewpoint of the strength of lemon flavor, the enhancement of the scent before the mouth (scented), the scent when contained in the mouth , Enhancement of aftertaste scent (residual scent), compared to the control, fruit flavor is not weak (1 point), unchanged (2 points), slightly strong (3 points), strong (4 points), fairly strong (5 points), was evaluated in five stages.
- Example 2 Similar to Example 1, when polymerized catechin was added, the lemon flavor was enhanced in any of the fragrance, in-mouth scent, and remaining scent. Compared with the case of using the extract A of Example 1 (concentrate of tea extract), the effect of the flavor exhibited by the polymerized catechin is higher when the purified product is used when the addition concentration is high (for example, polymerized catechin 500 ppm). I understand that there are few. From this, when using the plant extract containing polymeric catechin, it was suggested that what improved the refinement
- Example 3 Flavor enhancement effect of polymerized catechin in tea beverage (1) Oolong tea leaves were extracted with 30 times the amount of hot water for 4 minutes to obtain Oolong tea extract. To the obtained oolong tea extract (non-polymerized catechin 145 ppm, polymerized catechin 80 ppm), the extract A obtained in Production Example 1 was added to prepare a oolong tea beverage so that the polymerized catechin was 500, 300, 280, 260, 200 ppm. Then, 0.15% of lemon flavor was added to the mixture, sterilized by heating, and cooled to produce a lemon-flavored oolong tea beverage (pH 5.9, Brix 0.3 to 0.5).
- Oolong tea beverages usually contain non-polymerized catechins at a higher concentration than polymerized catechins (control), but beverages to which the polymerized catechins of the present invention are added are beverages containing polymerized catechins at a higher concentration than non-polymerized catechins.
- it was a tea-based beverage in which the ratio ((a) / (b)) based on weight of polymerized catechin (a) and non-polymerized catechin (b) was 1 or more.
- Increasing the amount of polymerized catechin enhanced the richness and volume of Oolong tea beverage, and the flavor of lemon was selectively enhanced as a flavor.
- This lemon flavor had a juicy, deep, mild, refreshing and ripe flavor and was close to natural lemon fruit.
- Oolong tea beverage with enhanced lemon flavor by polymerized catechins was a fruit-based tea beverage with high drinkability (taste) that can taste both the taste of the base Oolong tea itself and the lemon flavor. .
- Example 4 Flavor enhancement effect of polymerized catechin in tea beverage (2) Using the extract A obtained in Production Example 1 and the oolong tea extract obtained in Example 3, six kinds of oolong tea drinks having different ratios of non-polymerized catechin and polymerized catechin shown in Table 4 were prepared. .15% was added, heat sterilized, and cooled to produce a lemon-flavored oolong tea beverage (pH 5.9, Brix 0.3 to 0.5). By 5 expert panelists, the taste of each beverage as a flavored tea, that is, the balance between the flavor of oolong tea and the lemon flavor as a base, was compared by 5 expert panelists to a beverage that did not contain Extract A. As an evaluation, 5 grades (5 points: oolong tea and lemon flavor can be tasted together and delicious strawberry 1 point: either oolong tea or lemon flavor protrudes and the balance is poor and lacks deliciousness).
- the results are shown in Table 4.
- the ratio ((a) / (b)) of polymerized catechin (a) and non-polymerized catechin (b) on a weight basis is 1 or more, preferably 1.3 or more, more preferably 1.
- the beverage to which polymerized catechin was added so as to be 7 or more was a beverage having drinkability as a flavored tea (the lemon flavor was enhanced and the taste of oolong tea and the lemon flavor could be enjoyed in a balanced manner) . From Table 4, it was suggested that the concentration of non-polymerized catechin is preferably 180 ppm or less, more preferably 150 ppm or less.
- Example 5 Flavor enhancement effect of polymerized catechin in tea beverage (3) Using the extract A obtained in Production Example 1 and the oolong tea extract obtained in Example 3, three kinds of oolong tea beverages having different ratios of non-polymerized catechin and polymerized catechin shown in Table 5 were prepared. To this was added peach, bergamot, lychee and peppermint flavors. The five flavors (5 points: oolong tea and flavor flavor) can be tasted by five professional panelists regarding the flavor of each beverage as a flavor tea, that is, the balance between the flavor of the base oolong tea and the flavor of the flavor. Delicious rice cake 1 point: Either oolong tea or flavor flavor protrudes and the balance is poor and the taste is not good.
- Example 6 Extract A obtained in Production Example 1 was used as a cola-flavored beverage polymerized catechin. Aspartum 0.4 g and acesulfame K 0.1 g are used as a high-intensity sweetener, 0.55 g of citric acid (anhydrous), 0.5 g of trisodium citrate and 800 g of carbonated water are mixed, and 0 to 200 ppm (0 to 0 ppm) 0.02% by weight) caffeine, 0.3% by weight cola flavor and polymerized catechin extract A having a concentration of 0 to 400 ppm (0 to 0.04% by weight) so that the total amount becomes 1000 g.
- Aspartum 0.4 g and acesulfame K 0.1 g are used as a high-intensity sweetener, 0.55 g of citric acid (anhydrous), 0.5 g of trisodium citrate and 800 g of carbonated water are mixed, and 0 to 200 ppm (0 to 0 ppm) 0.0
- a carbonated beverage having a sweetness of 10, a Brix of about 0.16 to 0.47, and a gas pressure of 3.4 kg / cm 2 was produced by mixing an appropriate amount of water.
- the flavor of the obtained carbonated beverage was evaluated by four professional panelists. The evaluation is based on the brix 1, 2, 5, and 10 carbonated drinks (sweetness 10) produced by blending the sucrose shown in Table 6 from the viewpoints of richness and volume and the strength of the cola flavor. Were scored relatively as 1 point (slightly poor), 2 points (slightly feel), 3 points (feel), 4 points (feel very much).
- Carbonated beverages with a polymerized catechin of 200 ppm and caffeine of 100 ppm or higher, a polymerized catechin of 300 ppm and caffeine of 50 ppm or higher, and a polymerized catechin of 400 ppm with caffeine of 50 ppm or higher are almost equivalent to the richly carbonated beverage of Bri10 prepared with sucrose. ⁇ It was a very tasteful beverage with a sense of volume and flavor.

本発明の風味増強剤は、重合カテキンを有効成分として含有し、飲食品に添加することにより、飲食品自体の香味に影響を及ぼすことなく、飲食品に含まれる香料の風味を増強するのでフレーバーエンハンサーとして有用である。本発明の風味増強剤が添加される飲食品は限定されないが、好ましくは飲料用添加剤として用いられる。一般に、飲食品が液状(飲料)である場合には、固形剤と比較して添加剤の呈味の影響を受け易いものであるが、本発明の風味増強剤は飲食品自体の香味への影響が少ないという利点から、特に飲料に対して有用なものである。
本発明の風味増強剤は、飲食品に添加して香気成分の風味を増強するものであるが、香料と組み合わせて用いることで、香料の風味を選択的に増強するので、風味が増強された香料組成物に利用できる。
温水(95℃)に0.15重量%の重曹を添加した7800kgの重曹液を用いて、600kgの烏龍茶葉に抽出処理を施し、烏龍茶抽出液約7000kgを得た。この抽出液の液温を60~65℃に保持しながら、400kgの粒状活性炭(クラレ社製GW-H32/60)に通液して非重合カテキン、カフェインを除去した。この通過液(活性炭処理後の液)を減圧濃縮し、Brix11の重合カテキン高含有エキス(烏龍茶抽出物の濃縮物;エキス)(以下、エキスA)約900kgを得た。得られたエキスA中の重合カテキン、非重合カテキン及びカフェイン濃度を、下記条件のHPLCで測定した。その結果、重量基準で、重合カテキンの濃度は12000ppm、非重合カテキンの濃度は800ppm、カフェインの濃度は20ppmであった。
