“…However, little research has been available on the differences in quality grades of Tuo tea. At present, according to the artificial sensory evaluation, Tuo tea is artificially divided into three grades (special grade (SG), first grade (1G), and second grade (2G) [ 6 ]. Artificial sensory evaluation makes it difficult to clarify the correlation between composition and quality grades.…”

This study aims to investigate the relationship between the grades of Tuo tea and the quality of compounds. A combination of artificial sensory evaluation, intelligent sensory technologies (electronic nose and electronic tongue), gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), chemical–physical analysis, and multivariate statistical analysis were employed to examine the differences among three grades of Tuo tea (SG, 1G, and 2G). The results of artificial sensory evaluation, electronic tongue, and electronic nose revealed that the aroma and taste of different grades of Tuo tea varied greatly. A total of 112 volatile compounds and 44 non-volatile compounds were identified. In order to elucidate the key components that cause differences in the quality of Tuo tea, 2 partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models with excellent parameters (volatile, R2Y = 0.999 and Q2 = 0.996; non-volatile, R2Y = 0.992 and Q2 = 0.972) were established. A total of 80 key differential volatile compounds were identified with the double selection criterion of variable importance in projection (VIP) greater than 1 and p < 0.05. Among these, 43 compounds with OAV > 1 were further identified as the odor-active compounds in all three grades of Tuo. Moreover, 22 key non-volatile compounds that contribute to the quality differences have been screened out. This investigation implied that the volatile and non-volatile compounds of Tuo tea could serve as indicators of its quality. The results provided a new approach to distinguish the grades of Tuo tea.
