This study establishes an integrated framework combining chemical profiling, sensory analysis, and molecular mechanism evaluation to compare flavour quality and authenticity among fermented, washed, and artificially flavored coffees. GC × GC-TOF-MS and UHPLC-HRMS showed that fermented samples had markedly higher ester and aromatic alcohol levels (total esters 74.5 ± 7.8 mg kg-1; phenylethanol 27.5 ± 3.2 mg kg-1, p < 0.01), enhancing fruity-floral notes. Washed coffees contained the highest organic acid concentrations (45.2 ± 3.8 mg kg-1, p < 0.01), supporting brightness and umami. Artificially flavored coffees exhibited elevated exogenous aromatics (vanillin 21.5 ± 3.1 mg kg-1) but significantly fewer Maillard products (p < 0.05) and reduced flavour retention (55% after 14 days). Molecular docking revealed higher theoretical binding affinities for naturally generated compounds, suggesting a potential molecular basis for their greater sensory persistence. The framework supports constructing coffee quality fingerprints and verifying flavour authenticity.
An artificial neural network is used to predict both the classification of aroma compounds and their flavor impression threshold values for a series of pyrazines. The classification set consists of 98 compounds (32 green, 43 bell-pepper, and 23 nutty smelling pyrazines), and the regression sets consist of 24 green and 37 bell-pepper odorous pyrazines. The best classification of the three aroma impressions (93.7%) is obtained by using a multilayer perceptron network architecture. To predict the threshold values of bell-pepper fragrance, a standard Pearson R correlation coefficient of 0.936 for the training set, 0.912 for the verification set, and 0.926 for the test set is received with two hidden layers consisting of two and one neurons. The network for the threshold prediction of the class of green-smelling pyrazines with one hidden layer containing three neurons turns out to be the best with a standard Pearson R correlation coefficient of 0.859 for the training, 0.918 for the verification, and 0.948 for the test set. These good correlations show that artificial neural networks are versatile tools for the classification of aroma compounds.
