The invention relates to a preparation method of thermally sensitive plant-aromatic controlled-release granules, comprising the following steps of: carrying out drying treatment on aromatic plants by using a vacuum freeze drying technology so as to basically not cause the loss of original volatile aroma in the drying treatment of materials and not damage cell structures of natural plants with optimal aromatic substance controlled-release capacity; and treating cells of the natural plants by using an ultrasonic wall-breaking technology so that appropriate cracks appear on the cell walls of the cells, wherein when temperature is raised, the cracks positioned on cell membranes are expanded to form splits due to a principle of expanding with heat and contracting with cold so as to release aromatic substances, and when the temperature is reduced, the splits are closed so as to stop releasing the aromatic substances, therefore the purpose that the aromatic substances are uniformly released with the change of the temperature is achieved. The invention breaks through the technical bottlenecks of insufficient natural sense feeling of the aroma, insufficient controlled-release capacity and uniform release capacity of the aromatic substances, and the like in the prior art and gives continue, excellent and natural aromatic feeling to aromatized products, i.e. foods, tobaccos, drugs, and the like.
