That is, in addition to the umami and sweetness of the amino acids originally contained in teas and the amino acids generated by degradation by protease treatment, the sweetness of cellobiose itself enhances the preferred subtle sweetness and umami of teas, It is expected that the masking effect masks the bitter and astringent taste of catechin, and further masks the acidity and umami of gallic acid produced by tannase treatment, thereby improving the taste.
  • the present invention products 5 and 6 which were not as high as the present invention products 1 to 4 were (a) cellobiose based on the total solid content (Bx conversion) of tea extracts. The content (mass) is 0.99 to 1.58%, the mass ratio of (b) cellobiose / tannin is 0.043 to 0.080, and the mass ratio of (c) cellobiose / amino acid is 0.11 to 0.22. It was in the range.
  • Comparative products 1 to 15 have a cellobiose content (mass) of less than 0.8% based on the total solid content (Bx conversion) of (a) tea extracts, and (b) the mass of cellobiose / tannin.
  • the ratio was less than 0.03, and the (c) cellobiose / amino acid mass ratio was less than 0.08. Therefore, it is presumed that the sweetness, kokumi, umami and the like of the tea extract of the present invention were brought about by these differences.
  • the cellobiose content (mass) based on the total solid content (Bx conversion) of the tea extract is 0.8 to 10%
  • the cellobiose / tannin mass ratio is 0.03 to 1.0
  • the cellobiose / amino acid mass ratio is 0.08 to 1.0; preferably (a) all of the tea extracts
  • the cellobiose content (mass) based on solid content (Bx conversion) is 1.5 to 8%
  • the mass ratio of cellobiose / tannin is 0.05 to 0.5
  • the cellobiose / amino acid mass ratio is 0.15 to 0.8, more preferably (a) the cellobiose content (mass) based on the total solid content (Bx conversion) of the tea extract is 2 to 6%.
  • the mass ratio of cellobiose / tannin is 0.1 to 0.3 Ri, and (c) if 0.3 to 0.6 mass ratio of cell

Abstract

L'invention concerne un extrait de thé qui contient au moins une catéchine, un acide aminé et un cellobiose, qui comprend 0,8 à 10% en masse de cellobiose sur la base de la teneur en matière solide totale de l'extrait de thé (en termes de Bx), qui présente un rapport massique cellobiose/catéchine de 0,03 à 1,0, et un rapport massique cellobiose/acide aminé de 0,08 à 1,0, dont l'amertume est masquée, dont le goût se révèle généreusement doux, épais et agréable, et qui est doté d'une saveur bien équilibrée.
