Published: November 2022

Sauce-aroma Baijiu is a distilled Baijiu well-known in China, and features a unique sauce-aroma style formed by a complex producing process in a specific geographical environment. However, there are few comprehensive reviews of the factors influencing the formation of its flavor. To this end, reviews are hereby carried out over factors including different components in brewing raw materials, geographical environment of Baijiu production, brewing technology including the production of high-temperature Daqu and the brewing process, storage technology including the type of storage containers, storage time and storage temperature involved in the production of Sauce-aroma Baijiu. In addition, the effects of these factors on the flavor formation of Sauce-aroma Baijiu are also revealed, providing references and forging a foundation for stabilizing and improving the quality of Sauce-aroma Baijiu.

Endogenous peptides in Baijiu have primarily focused on finished liquor research, with limited attention given to the peptides in base liquor prior to blending. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to identify endogenous peptides in the distillates from the first to seventh rounds of soy sauce-flavored Baijiu. Two hundred and five oligopeptides were identified from these distillates, all of which had molecular weights below 1000 Da and were composed of amino acid residues associated with flavor (sweet, sour, and bitter) and biological activity.

The research focused on the distinctive empty cup aroma, with the aim of identifying the key aroma compounds and the formation mechanism of empty cup aroma in soy sauce aroma type baijiu (SSB). The lasting times of SSB is significantly longer than that of other types of baijiu, with an average duration of 28 days. Key compounds such as 2,3-dimethyl-5-ethylpyrazine, phenylethyl alcohol, -cresol, sotolon, benzeneacetic acid were identified in empty cup aroma due to their highest flavor dilution factor.

This study aimed to explore the potential antioxidant activity and mechanism of oligopeptides from sauce-aroma Baijiu. The oligopeptides of Val-Leu-Pro-Phe (VLPF), Pro-Leu-Phe (PLF), Val-Gly-Phe-Cys (VGFC), Leu-Tyr-Pro (LYP), Leu-Pro-Phe (LPF), and Phe-Thr-Phe (FTF) were identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) from the mixed-distillate of Baijiu fermented grains and soy sauce residue (MDFS). The antioxidant mechanism of these oligopeptides on scavenging DPPH•, ABTS•, and hydroxide radicals was investigated, respectively.

This study investigated the Maillard reaction in Baijiu and the effects of extended aging in the presence of Maillard reaction intermediates (MRIs) on aromatic compounds, particularly focusing on heterocyclic changes. MRIs with different aroma types in Baijiu aged 1-18 years and force-aged for 6 weeks were determined. Results revealed that MRIs in soy sauce aroma-type Baijiu were significantly more abundant than those in other types of Baijiu.

The retronasal aroma of Baijiu is closely related to its quality and consumer preference. Retronasal detection thresholds (RDTs) of 44 aroma compounds were determined in 46% v/v ethanol using a three-alternative forced-choice procedure, which varied widely and ranged from less than 0.02 to over 1,000,000 µg/L.
