    Introduction


    Baijiu is a traditional distilled liquor in China, which can be divided into twelve aroma types
    , such as sauce aroma type, strong aroma type, clear aroma type, rice aroma type, sesame aroma type, etc.
    according to the aroma characteristics.
    Among them, sesame aroma liquor is a newly established aroma type after the founding of the People's Republic of China and has a unique aroma of roasted sesame, which is particularly popular
    in the northern region of China.
    According to GB/T 20824-2007, sesame-flavored liquor is made of sorghum, wheat (bran), etc.
    as raw materials, and is fermented, distilled, aged, stored and blended by traditional solid-state fermentation method, without adding edible alcohol and other aromatic substances produced by non-liquor fermentation, which has the typical style of
    sesame-flavored liquor.

    At present, the research on sesame-flavored liquor mostly focuses on the research of volatile compounds or key compounds, and there are relatively few
    studies on different grades of sesame-flavored liquor.
    The study of the difference in flavor of different grades of sesame-flavored liquor is helpful to better analyze sesame-flavored liquor, which is of great significance
    to the improvement of the aroma and quality of sesame-flavored liquor.

    Dr.
    Qin Dan, School of Biosystems Engineering and Food Science, Zhejiang University, and Li Hehe, assistant researcher of the School of Light Industry Science and Technology, Beijing Technology and Business University, compared the flavor differences
    of different grades of sesame-flavored liquor by molecular sensory science combined with modern instrumental analysis.

    Results and discussion


    A total of 61 aroma active regions were identified from three wine samples by HS-SPME combined with GC-O-MS, and 54 aromaactive compounds
    were identified by mass spectrometry, retention index and aroma quasi-certainty.
    The aroma intensity of different grades of sesame-flavored liquor has certain differences, and the aroma intensity comparison is shown
    in Figure 1.
    Among them, excellent wine (JZ1) contains the largest number of compounds with the highest aroma intensity (S=4), furfuryl mercaptan (roasted sesame aroma), dimethyl trisulfide (cabbage), ethyl 2-methylpropanoate (fruity), ethyl valerate (apple), ethyl 3-phenylpropionate (floral), ethyl caproate (fruity), 3-methylbutyraldehyde (malt), β-marone (honey), butyric acid (rancidity), caproic acid (rancidity) have the highest aroma intensity in JZ14; Ethyl butyrate (pineapple), ethyl caproate (fruity), phenylacetaldehyde (grass), 3-methylbutyraldehyde (malt), β-marone (honey), caproic acid (rancidity) have the highest aroma intensity among first-class wines (JZ2)4; Furfuryl mercaptan (roasted sesame aroma) has the highest aroma intensity among secondary liquor (JZ3)4

    Quantification of volatile compounds in 3 different grades of sesame-flavored liquor

    The volatile compounds in three different grades of sesame-flavored liquor were quantitatively analyzed, among which esters had the highest concentration, followed by acids and alcohols
    .
    The statistical analysis results showed that 10 compounds including ethyl butyrate, ethyl valerate, ethyl caproate, and caproic acid had significant differences (P < 0.
    05), which may play an important role
    in distinguishing different grades of sesame-flavored liquor.
    The above results also show that the concentration of different compounds and the different concentration ratios of various compounds in the samples play an important role
    in the formation of different grades of sesame-flavored liquor.
    From the PCA results,
    it can be seen that 3 different grades of sesame-flavored liquor can be clearly distinguished.

    Furfuryl mercaptan concentration is low and cannot be quantified by GC-MS, but it has high aroma intensity (S≥ 3.
    7) in three different grades of sesame-flavored liquor, which makes an important contribution
    to sesame-flavored liquor.
    It was accurately quantified
    by full two-dimensional gas chromatography combined with sulfur-containing chemiluminescence detector (GC×GC-SCD) and internal standard curve method.
    The quantitative results showed that the compound had the highest concentration of 22.
    43±0.
    83 μg/L in JZ1, followed by JZ2 18.
    88±0.
    20 μg/L and JZ3 16.
    29±0.
    07 μg/L
    .
    The threshold value of furfuryl mercaptan was 0.
    1 μg/L, and the OAV value of furfuryl mercaptan in the three wine samples was calculated to be > 100
    .

    3 Analysis of PCA results of different grades of sesame-flavored liquor

    Sensory analysis: The eight sensory descriptors namely roasted, mellow, sour, sweet, fruity, grainy, floral and sulfur-containing aromas can be used to characterize the overall sensory properties
    of three different grades of sesame-flavored liquor.
    The statistical analysis results showed that roasting aroma was significantly different among the three wine samples, and other descriptors were not significant
    .
    As shown in Figure 4, compared to JZ2 and JZ3, JZ1 has the highest roasted, fruity and sweet aromas, where the higher fruity and floral aromas are consistent with
    the higher ester concentration and aroma intensity of the previous JZ1.
    At the same time, JZ1 has the most significant roasting aroma, which may be an important feature
    of JZ1 to become a premium wine.
    Compared to the other 2 samples, JZ2 has the highest floral aroma and JZ3 has the highest grain, sourness and sulfur aroma.

    The differences in the sensory properties of the three different grades of sesame-flavored liquor are shown in Figure 4
    .

    Conclusion


    In three different grades of sesame-flavored liquor, a total of 61 aroma active zones
    were identified.
    High-quality liquor JZ1 has the highest
    aroma intensity and concentration.
    There were significant differences in aroma intensity of dimethyltrisulphie, butyric acid, phenylacetaldehyde and nonanoic acid in the three liquor samples (P<0.
    05).

    The concentrations of 2-furanethiol, ethyl butyrate, ethyl valerate, ethyl hexanoate, hexanol, n-butyric acid, valeric acid, caproic acid, 2,6-dimethylpyrazine, furfural and ethyl 2-furanoate were significantly different (P<0.
    05
    ).
    Therefore, the above compounds play an important role
    in distinguishing 3 different grades of sesame-flavored liquor.
    Sensory evaluation showed that JZ1 had outstanding baking aroma intensity
    than JZ2 and JZ3.
    2-Furanmethanethiol and 2,6-dimethylpyrazine are associated with baking aroma, and they may contribute significantly to
    the differences in 3 different grades of sesame flavored liquor.
    Understanding the different grades of sesame-flavored liquor can help improve its characteristic aroma and increase the yield
    of high-quality liquor.
    Therefore, further research in this field will focus on the verification of key aroma compounds, odor precursors and formation pathways in sesame-flavored liquor, so as to provide a theoretical basis
    for the aroma and flavor regulation of sesame-flavored liquor.

    Abstract

    This study investigated the aroma-active compounds and compared the differences of three different grades of sesame-flavor Baijiu by headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS).
    A total of 54 aroma-active compounds were detected.
    Principal component analysis showed that JZ1, JZ2, and JZ3 were well separated from each other.
    JZ1 as the premium-grade Baijiu had the highest aroma intensities, concentrations.
    According to aroma intensities and concentrations, dimethyl trisulfide, butanoic acid, phenylacetaldehyde, 2-furylmethanethiol, ethyl hexanoate, 2,6-dimethylpyrazine, etc.
    could be potentially applied as volatile makers to distinguish the three different grades of sesame-flavor Baijiu as their significant difference (P < 0.
    05) in three Baijiu samples.
    Roasted aroma had the significant difference (P < 0.
    05) in three sample base on aroma profiles.
    Meanwhile, 2-furylmethanethiol, 2,6-dimethylpyrazine were related to the roasted aroma, they may be had a significant contribution to the differences of three different grades of sesame-flavor Baijiu.
    This study has provided a comprehensive understanding of the differences of three different grades of sesame-flavor Baijiu.
