Melville, New York, June 6, 2012 – The sensation of taste can be categorized into five basic groups: sweet, bitter, sour, salty and umami. The tongue identifies each type in a distinct way. When these tastes are doubled up, it makes for a dimension of flavor like no other.
Comax Flavors offers unique flavor duos for a wide variety of applications. Sometimes compatible and sometimes contrasting, their combos work together to bring excitement to the palette. Some of these include:
- Chocolate Banana — the richness of cocoa paired with the sweetness of fruit. Used in protein drinks, milk drinks yogurt and other dairy.
