Anisyl acetate (4-methoxybenzyl acetate) is an acetate ester of anisyl alcohol. It is a naturally occurring flavor found in various fruits and types of vanilla. [1] It is also used as a flavoring agent to produce a flavor profile described variously as sweet, smooth, fruity (cherry or plum) and vanilla or almond. [2]
Flavor, flavour, or taste is the perceptual impression of food or other substances, and is determined primarily by the chemical senses of the gustatory and olfactory system. The "trigeminal senses", which detect chemical irritants in the mouth and throat, as well as temperature and texture, are also important to the overall gestalt of flavor perception. The flavor of the food, as such, can be altered with natural or artificial flavorants which affect these senses.
Vanilla is a spice derived from orchids of the genus Vanilla, primarily obtained from pods of the Mexican species, flat-leaved vanilla (V. planifolia).
