Abstract:

The total of 66 aroma compounds were determined by headspace solid-phase microextraction followed by GC-MS on the basis of micro volatile compounds and aroma compounds of Yanghe supple and mellow aroma type liquors. Ethyl hexanoate is the key aroma of supple and mellow aroma style liquors by calculation of odor activity values (OAVs) of aroma compounds; OAV is more than 27000, and average OAV of 4 samples is 24799. Ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, dimethyl trisulfide, ethyl pentanoate, ethyl butanoate, and ethyl octanoate are important aroma compounds. Pentanoic acid, ethyl 2-methylpropanoate, 3-methylbutanal, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, and hexanoic acid contribute to aroma and flavor of Yanghe liquors. The results showed the key aroma compound of supple and mellow aroma type liquor was same to strong aroma type liquor, whereas the important aromas were different.
