Popis: Scenting is an important process for the formation of aroma quality in floral Longjing tea. There are differences in the aroma quality of osmanthus Longjing teas processed by different scenting processes. The efficient isolated scenting method was employed to process a new product of osmanthus Longjing tea in this study, and this was compared with the traditional scenting method. The volatile compounds of osmanthus Longjing tea were analyzed by a GC-MS instrument. In addition, the effects of scenting time and osmanthus consumption on the aroma quality of Longjing tea were studied. The results indicated that there were 67 kinds of volatile compounds in the osmanthus Longjing tea produced by the isolated scenting process (O-ISP), osmanthus Longjing tea produced by the traditional scenting process (O-TSP), and raw Longjing tea embryo (R), including alcohols, ketones, esters, aldehydes, olefins, acids, furans, and other aroma compounds. The proportions of alcohol compounds, ester compounds, aldehyde compounds, and ketone compounds in O-ISP were higher than in O-TSP and R. When the osmanthus consumption was increased, the relative contents of volatile aroma compounds gradually increased, which included the contents of trans-3,7-linalool oxide II, dehydrolinalool, linalool oxide III (furan type), linalool oxide IV (furan type), 2,6-Dimethyl cyclohexanol, isophytol, geraniol, 1-octene-3-alcohol, cis-2-pentenol, trans-3-hexenol, β-violet alcohol, 1-pentanol, benzyl alcohol, trans-p-2-menthene-1-alcohol, nerol, hexanol, terpineol, 6-epoxy-β-ionone, 4,2-butanone, 2,3-octanedione, methyl stearate, cis-3-hexenyl wasobutyrate, and dihydroanemone lactone. When the scenting time was increased, the relative contents of aroma compounds gradually increased, which included the contents of 2-phenylethanol, trans-3,7-linalool oxide I, trans-3,7-linalool oxide II, dehydrolinalool, isophytol, geraniol, trans-3-hexenol, β-ionol, benzyl alcohol, trans-p-2-menthene-1-ol, nerol, hexanol, terpineol, dihydroβ-ionone, α-ionone, and β-ionone,6,10. The isolated scenting process could achieve better aroma quality in terms of the floral fragrance, refreshing fragrance, and tender fragrance than the traditional scenting process. The isolated scenting process was suitable for processing osmanthus Longjing tea with high aroma quality. This study was hoped to provide a theoretical base for the formation mechanism and control of quality of osmanthus Longjing tea.
