The flavor profile relies heavily on the presence of glutamate and mannitol, while apigenin and diallyl-disulfide contribute to its distinctive composition. Measuring low on the sweetness and fat axes, it prioritizes a savory umami-salty equilibrium, characterized by specific horseradish and miso aromatic clusters that define its structural base.
