Some of the constituents of Cognac's brandy or Cognac media indeed int
eract with volatile sulfur compounds: among these constituents, transi
tion metals (particularly copper ions) chelate thiols reversibly. This
thiol complexation diminishes considerably their concentration in the
analyzed static headspace of the solutions. In the case of cognacs me
dia, the caramel addition decrease the concentrations of volatile sulf
ur compounds; hydrogen sulfide and thiols are especially well bounded.
