UMAMI is the savory fifth basic taste that brings depth, richness, and satisfaction to food. As the company that identified and commercialized the first umami seasoning (MSG) through the discovery of glutamate, Ajinomoto Group has spent more than a century advancing the science of taste. Today, we continue to help customers around the world create more enjoyable food experiences through our expertise in umami and “AminoScience.”
Aspartame is a low-calorie sweetener that delivers a clean, sugar-like taste with approximately 200 times the sweetness of sugar. Used in a wide range of food, beverage, gum, and pharmaceutical applications, aspartame helps consumers reduce sugar intake while continuing to enjoy the flavors they love. Through our expertise in sweetening solutions, we support the development of products that meet evolving wellness and lifestyle needs.
