Used primarily as a flavoring agent due to its strong roasted, nutty, and earthy aroma. Commonly found in food products such as roasted nuts, coffee, chocolate, and savory snacks to enhance overall flavor profile. Also utilized in the formulation of artificial meat flavors and seasoning blends. Its high impact at low concentrations makes it valuable in the flavor industry for creating complex, realistic taste experiences. Frequently used in very small amounts in fragrance compositions to add depth and warmth in perfumery applications.
