Sumario: | Wuyi rock tea (WRT) is famous for its long history and unique characteristic of floral, fruity and nutty flavors. This study investigated the aroma characteristics of WRTs prepared from 16 different oolong tea plant varieties. The sensory evaluation results showed that all WRTs had an ‘Yan flavor’ taste, and the odor was strong and lasting. Roasted, floral and fruity odors were the prime aroma profiles for WRTs. Furthermore, a total of 368 volatile compounds were detected using HS–SPME–GC–MS and analyzed with OPLS–DA and HCA methods. The volatile compounds heterocyclic compounds, esters, hydrocarbons, terpenoids and ketones were the major aromatic components of the WRTs. Specifically, the volatile profiles among newly selected cultivars were comparatively analyzed, and 205 differential volatile compounds were found with variable importance in the projection (VIP) values above 1.0. These results indicated that the aroma profiles of WRTs were mainly dependent on the cultivar specificities of volatile compounds. |
