Identification of Key Aroma-Active Compounds in Commercial Coffee Using GC-OAEDA and OAV Analysis

In this study, we systematically characterize the volatile and non-volatile flavor profiles of coffee beans. Sensory evaluation demonstrated unique aromatic profiles for each coffee, with Colombia excelling in chocolate and nutty notes, while Bench Maji exhibited pro- nounced fruity characteristics. Yirgacheffe had a prominent roasted aroma, and Baoshan stood out for its stronger woody and caramel notes.
