Disclosed herein are 5-Substituted 4-amino-1H-benzo[c][1,2,6]thiadiazine 2,2-dioxide compounds useful as sweet flavor modifiers. Also disclosed herein are ingestible compositions that include one or more of these compounds in combination with a natural or artificial sweetener. ##STR00001##

The present invention relates to a method for assessing an aroma component that can be added to a food or beverage product, and a method for preparing a flavor composition comprising adjusting a blending ratio of an aroma component on the basis of the assessing method. In the present invention, regarding two or more types of aroma components contained in a food or beverage product that are discharged from the nose via the posterior nasal cavity when consuming the food or beverage product: a change in concentration of each aroma component with respect to the number of breaths (t) during a breath cycle is measured; when an area under the curve value (C) of each number of breaths is approximated by a power function represented by an equation C=a*t.sup.b, an area under the curve value (a value) per unit amount for the first breath and a coefficient (b value) indicating a degree of attenuation of the area under the curve value are respectively calculated; and the influence on flavor of the aroma component contained in the food or beverage product is evaluated by using the magnitude relationships of the a value and the b value of the two or more types of aroma components as an index correlated with the magnitude relationship of the extent of the influence on the flavor of the food or beverage product.

The invention relates to new types of modulators of the cold menthol receptor TRPM8, to methods of modulating the TRPM8 receptor using these modulators; and in particular the use of the modulators for inducing a sensation of coldness; and also the articles and compositions produced using these modulators.

The present invention relates to a compound of formula (I1); to a mixture comprising an amount from 86% to 99% by weight measured by quantitative proton-NMR of a compound of formula (IA), (IB), (IC), (ID), (IE), (IF), (IG), (IH) and (IJ); and an edible composition and an edible article comprising them. The invention also relates to processes for their preparation and their use as a savoury and mouthfulness taste enhancer; particularly kokumi and/or umami taste enhancer. Formulae (I) (IA), (IB), (IC), (ID), (IE), (IF), (IG), (IH), (IJ). ##STR00001## ##STR00002##

The present disclosure provides a novel sweetener composition of improved taste of the sweetener (e.g., reduced bitterness and/or astringency, and improved overall sweet quality of the composition); food and beverage products containing the same; and methods of making the same.

The present invention relates to processes and intermediates for the preparation of compounds of formula (I): ##STR00001## or a salt or oxide thereof wherein Alk, M.sup.1, M.sup.2, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, and n are as described herein. The present invention also relates to compounds of formula (I) and composition comprising a compound of formula (I). Also disclosed is a method of altering or improving the taste of a composition that includes adding to the composition at least one compound of formula (I), in an amount effective to obtain a modified composition having altered or improved taste relative to an otherwise identical composition lacking said compound.
