The Marzipan Note
Bitter almond has long been the source of the classic marzipan and almond-extract aroma, prized in fine fragrance and flavour work for its sweet, unmistakable character.
The bitter almond tree produces a broader, shorter almond than the sweet variety, and its kernels are the source of this potent aromatic material.
Harvesting & Extraction
Aromatic bitter almond oil is produced by distillation of the processed kernels. Crucially, it must be supplied free from prussic acid (FFPA) to be safe for aromatic use.
