The Givaudan flavourists use Treks to explore and discover new flavours and ingredients which they can then translate into original, unique and distinctive flavours for your brands.
Our flavourists seek out the unusual and the exciting – capturing and sampling the new flavours and ingredients in a field lab with their proprietary tools.
As part of our ongoing global quest to discover new taste technology Givaudan embarked on TasteTrek™ Umami. The Givaudan task force was made up from a joint team of flavourists, chefs and analytical scientists from Europe and Japan. The aim of TasteTrek™ Umami was to discover new taste molecules with the focus on umami and taste enhancement from ingredients used in the Japanese kitchen.
