Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the sensory attributes for the evaluation of bitter orange (Citrus aurantium L.) sensory profile, in three different cultivars (Canaliculata, C1; Crispifolia, C2; Salicifolia C3), so that it was possible to highlight their sensory characteristics, through the application of the official procedure. Our results revealed that the odor of C1 was mainly characterized by the citrus flavor, while the aroma of C3 was governed primarily by specific flowers. C2 had a lower aromatic intensity and, overall, a more balanced flavor enriched with cooked fruit that characterized it. Greater knowledge of the peculiar sensorial properties of each cultivar could enhance and make their food use more appropriate.
