ABSTRACT

A non-targeted metabolomics approach and sensory evaluation, coupled with multivariate statistical analysis, systematically uncover the impact of the rolling time on the quality parameters of black tea. GC-MS analysis reveals that a moderate extension of rolling time favorably contributes to the accumulation of characteristic aroma components in black tea. The volatile components reach their highest concentration in black tea samples processed during an 80-min rolling period. UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS analysis demonstrates a substantial decrease in the contents of catechins and flavonoids with an increase in rolling time. Simultaneously, the production of theaflavins, coupled with the degradation of green bitterness volatiles (GBVs), significantly contributes to the formation of endogenous aroma components in black tea. These findings underscore the close relationship between rolling time control and black tea quality, emphasizing that a moderate extension of the rolling time fosters the development of improved black tea flavor quality. The comprehensive quality evaluation indicates that the optimal duration is 80 min. However, the initial 0 to 20 min of rolling is a crucial phase for the genesis and transformation of black tea quality. This study offers valuable insights into the influence of rolling time on black tea quality, potentially enhancing future studies of rolling technology. It provides theoretical guidelines for optimizing the processing of Gongfu black tea.

ABSTRACT

This study delved into the aroma characteristics of "Qingxiang" oolong tea, analyzing six different cultivars and their processing modes. The findings showed that both cultivars and processing modes have a significant impact on the oolong tea aroma system. The study identified 18 terpenoid volatiles (VTs), 11 amino-acid-derived volatiles (AADVs), 15 fatty-acid-derived volatiles (FADVs), 3 carotenoid-derived volatiles (CDVs), and 10 other compounds in oolong tea that differentiate it from green and black tea. The turn-over stage was found to be the primary processing stage for oolong tea aroma formation. Molecular sensory analysis revealed that the "fresh" odor attribute is the basis for its aroma, while "floral and fruity" fragrances are its aroma characteristics. The perception of oolong tea as "fresh" and "floral and fruity" is influenced by the interactions of its aroma components. These findings provide a new basis for breed improvement and process enhancement in oolong tea production.

ABSTRACT

The present study emphasizes the effect of withering time set at 4 ± 0.5 h (WT4), 6 ± 0.5 h (WT6), 8 ± 0.5 h (WT8), 10 ± 0.5 h (WT10), and 12 ± 0.5 h (WT12) on the sensory qualities, chemical components, and nutritional characteristics of black tea. The sensory evaluation revealed high total quality scores at WT8 and WT10. Polysaccharides, amino acids, and soluble sugars significantly increased with an increase in withering time, and an apparent peak value was obtained at WT10. However, polyphenols, flavonoids, glycosides, organic acids, catechins, alkanoids, and theaflavins decreased with an increase in withering time. With an increase in withering time, the content of aromatic substances showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing. The peaks of alcohols, aldehydes, and acids appeared at 10 ± 0.5 h, 10 ± 0.5 h, and 8 ± 0.5 h, respectively. The content of esters, ketones, and hydrocarbons showed a downward trend with an increase in withering time. Aroma analysis revealed that withering time could not exceed 10 ± 0.5 h. Black tea withered up to WT10 showed enhanced inhibition of α-glucosidase and α-amylase activity with good sensorial attributes. Glucose uptake inhibition capacity increased up 6 ± 0.5 h and then decreased, while antioxidant capacity decreased with an increase in withering time. The overall results show that the 8 ± 0.5 h to 10 ± 0.5 h withering time could improve black tea quality and nutritional characteristics.
