1:00 – 1:40 pm CSA Vendor Spotlight Sarah Gutierrez, Director of Ingredients at MANE. MANE created the JUNGLE ESSENCE™ travel kit, a revolutionary device that captures any scent or taste from its ecosystem. To capture the true olfactory personality of natural
ingredients, MANE has pioneered techniques in extracting aromas and odours. The tool extracts any scent or taste from a raw material small and easy to use, without any external source of energy. This can be taken anywhere to obtain sample-sized extractions of odorous molecules, which can be recreated at industrial scale.
