What are aromas
We have been using aromas for years to provide our food with delicious taste and aroma. Just think of soft drinks or alcoholic drinks such as liqueur. Aromas are also used in the various tea blends to provide the tea with a unique aroma and taste. Three different types of aromas can be distinguished.
A first aroma are the natural aromas. This aroma is extracted directly from a plant or fruit. It is a purely physical process where any chemical process is prohibited.
We can also add nature-identical aromas to the list. These types of aromas are created by a chemical process, but the final result is identical to the substance of a natural product.
Finally, there are also the Artificial or synthetic flavors. These aromas are completely extracted by chemical processes, but unlike nature identical aromas have no natural equivalent. These may only be used if their food safety can be demonstrated.
At Teacultures we do not work with artificial aromas. This is because we want to be bound with the naturalness of the tea. You can find our aromas, for example, in a delicious Earl Grey, known for its wonderful scent and fresh character.
