Interest in the quantitative analysis of flavouring agents in alcoholic beverages arises from the possible toxicological consequences deriving from their use. The method reported here, based on gas chromatography with selected‐ion monitoring mass spectrometry (SIM), allows the simultaneous measurement of α,β‐thujone, pulegone, safrole, coumarin and β‐asarone at the ppb level in alcoholic beverages.
