L-Menthyl Lactate is a derivative of L-menthol. It is a white crystalline solid with almost no aroma. It has a long-lasting cool taste and a cooling effect. It is the best substitute for mint and has the advantages of being long-lasting, odourless, and non-irritating. L-Menthyl Lactate is widely used in cosmetics, skin care products, detergents, tobacco, food, beverages, candy, mint water, medicine and other products.
