Ten flavour attributes such as after taste, astringency, bitter, caramel-like, floral/sweet, green/grassy, hay-like, malty, roasty, and seaweed were identified. Intensities for a number of flavour attributes (except for caramellike in SDIT and bitter and after taste in DCIT) were not significantly different (p > 0.05) among tea samples. The present study suggests that instant teas can also be used as good alternative to black tea.
