Apple [Cider], pure juice + Pear, whole
Affinity score 59%Shared compounds 5Source: modal-canonical-v3
Shared flavor compounds
These compounds appear in both Apple [Cider], pure juice and Pear, whole, giving them a molecular basis for flavor affinity, the pairing principle articulated by Francois Benzi and implemented in flavor-pairing research.
