Popis: Aroma is an important factor affecting the quality of tea. Fatty acids are one of precursors and their derived contributes to tea aroma considerably. In this study, we analyzed the fatty acids of Jinmudan fresh tea leaves in different stalk position. It was found that with shoot maturity increased, the content of PUFAs (Polyunsaturated fatty acids) was increased while the content of SFAs (Saturated fatty acids) and MUFAs (Monounsaturated fatty acids) gradually decreased. During the processing period, totally 704 kinds of compounds were identified, among them, 27 kinds of fatty acid-derived volatile compounds were selected including 6 kinds of aldehydes, 8 kinds of alcohols, 13 kinds of esters and their dynamic change were revealed. Finally, the character of aroma during main processing stages and processed tea was concluded by using a flavor wheel. This study results provide a theoretical basis for the improvement of processing and quality in Jinmudan black tea.
