Tropical fruit character with standout notes of grapefruit, passion fruit and guava. Naturally present in citrus and exotic fruits, this potent sulfur compound adds freshness and complexity to fruit profiles.  At low levels, it enhances mouthfeel and lends juicy realism to mango, durian, banana and tropical blends. At higher levels, its green, alliaceous overtones shift the profile toward cooked onion and roast beef, making it useful in savory and roasted flavor applications.
