Abstract

The present work aimed to evaluate the volatile compounds and sensory profile of liquors from different Brazilian states and from Cotê d’Ivoire. A trained panel analyzed samples for their intensity of several flavors by Descriptive Analysis and volatile compounds were evaluated by chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results showed that liquors from Pará and Cotê d’Ivoire presented a relation to chocolate and floral flavors, respectively, meanwhile those organic from Pará presented high acidity flavors. Liquors from Pará and Cotê d'Ivoire were related to chocolate and floral flavors. Samples from Bahia were slightly related to woody and cocoa flavors, meanwhile cocoas from Rondônia and Espírito Santo were related to musty, smoked, burned flavors. Chocolate flavor was related to volatile compounds with recognized roasted and nut odors. Acidity flavor was statistically tracked with compounds with flowery and fruit odors. Smoked and woody flavors were tracked to compounds with pungent, rancid and sour odors, and 1-octanol and 1H-Indole (burned notes). Fruity, sweety and flowery compounds composed the green flavor. Burned flavor was linked to waxy and rancid compounds. The intensity of musty was related to the presence compounds with citrus and cocoa odors. Cocoa attribute was statistically related to compounds with flowery and fruity odors.
