Fifty-six samples of differently produced commercial Italian ciders were analysed for semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) profiling, using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOF-MS) technique for the very first time. To properly support the compositional investigation of this emerging beverage, a chemometric approach through Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was employed. This revealed a sample distribution in agreement with results of the sensory tasting panel performed on such ciders, highlighting an excellent correlation between variables and perceived odorants. In particular, the positions of peculiar and anomalous objects in the Principal Components (PCs) space are explicitly evaluated, exploring the associated loadings (i.e., the importance of the identified chemical compounds), paying attention to their biochemical origin along the cider-making process and their impact on the sample olfactory analysis. Besides this, the t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) method was shown to be an efficient tool for gathering pear ciders from the other samples (apple ciders), better than PCA. This study stands for the first survey on Italian commercial craft cider, and its results are aimed to be a milestone for its characterization and to start and promote cider culture in this country. |
