Abstract:Three kinds of flavor enriched black tea in the world are produced from Qimen in China, Darjeeling in India and Uva in Sri Lanka. The results of analysis from the Qimen black tea showed that there are more than twenty flavour volatiles. The essential aromatic compounds are geraniol, 2,6-di-butul-l,4-benzoquinone, 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methyl phenol, benzenemethanol, benzenethanol, linalool and linalool oxides. In Qimen black tea the aroma acquired is produced during the processing aside from the original compounds of fresh leaves.
