摘要

This paper reported the effect of oolong tea processing procedure of turn-over on quality of the Jinmudan Oolong tea,including taste components and volatile compounds.The content of the water extractable solids was gradually increased,but the content of amino acid decreased and then increased,and the content of the soluble sugar and tea polyphenols increased after the first turn-over processing.The major volatiles of the three tested Jinmudan Oolong tea samples were nerolidolcistrans,α-farnesene,palmitic acid,indole and 9,12,15-octadecatrienoicacid and methyl ester.The sensory evaluation results showed that an appropriate increase in the number of turn-over was helpful to quality of the Jinmudan Oolong tea.
