What Is Denatonium Benzoate?
Denatonium benzoate is a white, crystalline salt, and it is widely known as the most bitter substance ever made. Even at extremely low concentrations, a few parts per million, people and animals taste it right away and want to spit it out.
That is exactly why industries use it. It adds no colour or smell to a product, it dissolves easily in water and alcohol, and it works as a safety deterrent. It is not meant to be a flavour. You can read the chemical details on PubChem.
