Default Where to find concentrated raspberry flavor?


A coworker recently told me about a winemaker he knows, who had this
bottle of concentrated natural raspberry flavoring. He put ONE drop
into a barrel of wine and infused all that wine with a raspberry
nose and flavor.

Hansen's Natural Soda also seems to use something similar. Open up
a can of Hansen's Raspberry soda, and you'll notice it's clear and
colorless, yet it uses only "natural European raspberry flavor" and
"other natural flavors" for flavoring. Likely they use only a drop
of the stuff per gallon too.

Anybody know where I can get this product? It gives me some ideas
for recipes. I can find "extracts" but they don't seem to be the
same. The extracts typically contain alcohol and water, and the
"concentrates" have sugar and other ingredients.

The closest I can find comes from a science chemical supply sto

that may not be it either, at least not "natural" flavoring. Or is
it?
