Bringing a Grape-Wine Character to Small-Batch Drinks
The Cabernet Sauvignon Wine flavoring in a compact 5 ml bottle is designed for anyone who wants a rich, recognizable wine profile without growing grapes or running a lengthy fermentation process. This concentrated flavor compound reproduces the classic character of a dry red wine — dark berry tones, a subtle tannic edge, and the deep finish typical of cabernet varieties. It belongs to the category of Food flavorings for alcoholic beverages, a line built for giving drinks a distinct taste profile without relying on raw natural feedstock at industrial scale.
The 5 ml pack is aimed squarely at home experimentation, trial batches, and precise dosing in small production runs. This size lets hobbyists and small labs test a new flavor direction before committing to a larger container, and it suits recipe developers who need accurate concentration control without paying for liters of an untested blend. The flavoring finds use in wine-style beverages, low-alcohol cocktails, non-alcoholic wine imitations, and confectionery applications — fillings, creams, glazes, and desserts built around a wine-forward taste. It also appears in fermented-must based drinks where the natural aroma needs reinforcement or correction.
For best results, add the flavoring at the final stage of production, after heat treatment, pasteurization, or cooling of the base, since volatile aromatic compounds can break down at high temperatures. The recommended introduction temperature is no higher than 40 degrees Celsius. Dosage depends on the desired intensity and the base composition, typically ranging from 0.5 to 2 ml per liter of finished product, though a small test batch is always worth running before scaling up a formulation.
This flavoring pairs well with other additives from the same range. For layered, more complex beverage profiles, it's often combined with Muscat Food Flavoring, which brings a floral-fruity note and softens the tannic edge of the wine profile. For light aperitifs and spiced infusions, blending with Flavor ANIS 1179 works well, while summer refreshers and punch-style blends benefit from combining it with Fragrance KRYUSHON 516, which adds brightness and a light fruity acidity.
Store the flavoring in a tightly sealed container, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature not exceeding room temperature. Once opened, it's best to use the product within the manufacturer's recommended timeframe, minimizing prolonged air exposure, since this can weaken the aroma intensity over time.
