Abstract

The primary tea samples of summer-autumn congou black tea was selected as research objects to investigate the effect of post-fermentation process on the quality of summer-autumn black tea. Samples were fermented in a controlled temperature and humidity environment. The effects of post-fermentation on the quality indexes and sensory quality of black tea were analyzed when the tea was fermented to 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0 days. Partial least squares discriminant analysis was used to explore the key differential components of different post-fermentation stages. The results showed that the contents of biochemical components, indexes of soup color properties showed increase or decrease tendency in fluctuation, and the contents of aroma components were higher at 2.5 to 3.5 days. Post-fermentation for 3.0 days, the ratio of ester catechins to simple catechins was lower (0.70), the contents of tea polyphenols and catechins were significantly lower than the non post-fermentation black tea (P<0.05), meanwhile, the values of theaflavins, thearubigins were higher, and the values of theabrownins, caffeine, octanoic acid were lower. The treatment of post-fermentation 3.0 days could obtain high-quality summer-autumn black tea. Phenylethyl alcohol, β-ionone, geranyl acetone, octanoic acid, theabrownins and total catechins were the distinctive characteristic components of different post-fermentation stages. This finding provides theoretical reference for the quality improvement of summer-autumn black tea.
