Portfolio directions

From spice oils to matured notes.

The available portfolio includes selected wood, fruit and spice-derived ingredients. Lux recommends an extract according to the product, flavour direction and target market.

Matured, woody and barrel-associated depth for suitable beverage systems.

How selection works

Many candidates. Few make it in.

Lux develops and selects extracts on how they perform in the finished product, then builds them into the flavour.
