Technical field are as follows: Food Chemistry and other consumer goods.
Background technique
According to some reports, the mankind have the history of the almost quincentenary ageing Spirit in cootle.Although There is the experience of billions of people-hours, but does not understand the countless chemical reaction for leading to the flavor of cootle ageing wine completely yet. Wine derives its unique feature when being stored in cootle at any time, is partly due to the generation and presence of ester.Ester is It is bonded by acid molecule with alcohol molecular chemistry to form the compound that noval chemical compound generates, usually there is pleasant fragrance and taste Road.The process referred to as " is esterified ".Other than esterification, the wine of cootle ageing also passes through other processes, including from wooden Aroma compound is extracted in container (for example, generally existing oak barrel), and derives additional feature.These processes are not necessarily It is separated or unique, but can interact with each other and interact.
Traditionally, produce cootle ageing Spirit include carboxylic esterification, phenolic acid esterification and including phenolic acid and carboxylic The formation of the complex ester of acid.Carboxylate leads to fruit aroma and taste in Spirit.Carboxylic acid precursor's acid derives from fermentation process In yeast and bacterium.In case of organic substance has been used in the container of these reactions, then these substances also will affect this Process.For example, carboxylic acid precursor's acid also derives from the rubber found in the liner of bucket when using the oak barrel burnt or toasted The thermal decomposition of the wooden polymer --- hemicellulose.Carboxylic acid precursor's acid mainly results in the " smell substance (off of Spirit flavors)".In addition, be similar to solvent " smell substance " common deficiency be by ethyl acetate in making ripe wine Accumulation and generate.Smell substance is the various flavoursome or fragrant compound being present in wine, usually by appreciation household Colourful term (for example, " sulfur smoke ", " solvent taste ", " meat flavour ", " tart flavour ", " metallic taste ", " vegetables taste " etc.) is retouched It states.Phenolic aldehyde also plays a significant role in generating the fragrance for being similar to vanilla, pipe tobacco and cigarette.Phenolic aldehyde is mainly derived from bucket The oak polymer of the thermal decomposition found in liner.Complex ester leads to honey fragrance complicated in Spirit.Complex ester usually produces It is born from the chemical reaction of both carboxylic acid and phenolic acid/aldehyde and alcohol during in bucket or other containers.
The esterification of the Fischer (Fischer) of fatty acid and alcohol is chemical reaction that is a kind of well-known and generalling use.Allusion quotation The lab process of type includes in the presence of acid catalyst heating the solution of fatty acid and alcohol under reflux.It is set in laboratory In setting, strong acid (for example, sulfuric acid) is generallyd use as catalyst, but this may be sensitive to strong acid and usual with other functional groups Forbid the wine brewing process of chemical addition agent incompatible.It has long been known that Fischer esterification can also using weak acid catalyst come It completes, but this is using relatively slow reaction rate as cost.When the ripe period use of wine in Spirit is burnt or is toasted Oak barrel when, weak acid may be extracted gradually from the organic substance in bucket wall.It is catalyzed using the weak acid from bucket Agent usually requires the several years to accumulate ester, although having been observed that under warmer environment (that is, normal big lower than 120 °F Appropriate heating in gas condition and range) process can substantially speed up (from many decades to several years).The acceleration of this old model is old Wine is to increase from the evaporation of bucket as cost.Usually up to 50% product may be lost due to evaporation.
It is that the process of the astringent taste of color and " oak taste " and " smoke " is provided to Spirit that wood, which extracts,.Traditionally, this gives the credit to In tannic acid (polyphenol).It is interesting that we are not found the clear evidence of tannic acid to the analysis for making ripe wine.And on the contrary, we Phenol derived from countless less complicated wood is had found, such as sinapyladehyde and syringaldehyde.Unexpectedly demonstrate the extraction of these oaks Compound as the marker for monitoring following aging process be useful.
Had attempted to by relatively large range (for example, -2 between 10ATM;Referring to United States Patent (USP) public affairs 2013/0149423) number of opening recycles or changes pressure to accelerate the wine of Spirit ripe.These techniques do not generate and pass through biography usually The close enough product of the product that system means generate.Other environmental conditions are more aggravated for obtaining feature related with ripe flavor is made It wants.
Being esterified and extracting the wooden compound from cootle is some main anti-of the generation during the wine of Spirit is ripe It answers.Because these processes are run simultaneously, and are usually interacted with each other or are interdepended, and dependent on changing over time The substance and other conditions of its environment, so being still to obtain while deviation conventional method is very remote similar the result is that very Difficult.For example, quickly oak extracts the possibly time that can not provide the interaction of enough and cootle to obtain presence Some more delicate and complicated flavor in the wine of traditional ageing.Many losses in wine brewing are from generation final product High latency and product are from the evaporation in bucket.Reserve must be stored, usually in the environment of climate controlling, and And it is tested repeatedly during wine is ripe.However, it is difficult to predict market later for many years.The manufacturer for producing multi-product can not make It, which is invested, maximizes, and the potentially beneficial market opportunity can not be caught by producing very few manufacturer.
The consumer of Spirit is usually educated and has identification capability.Many people will refuse to consume non-orthodox school The product of taste is paid.Need such method, by this method can reach within the period significantly shortened with The relevant quality of the wine of traditional ageing and complexity, the preferably evaporation of reduction finished product and the accumulation for reducing ethyl acetate.

Specific embodiment
The present invention relates to for producing the method with the Spirit for making ripe Spirit correlated characteristic.It is produced according to this method Spirit have many features relevant to the ripe Spirit of wine produced according to industrial standard, but its advantageously shortening when Between production in section, while eliminating evaporation problems and greatly reducing " smell substance " related with Excess ethyl acetate.Pass through Make not make ripe Spirit and contacted at elevated temperatures with timber and contact the wine with actinic light, wine can not reduced Shorten in the case where quality and makes ripe process.In particular, it was surprisingly found that method described herein is in one section significantly shortened The wine with chemical marker similar with 32 years old wine is produced in time.
As used herein, wine refers to arbitrary Spirit.In certain embodiments, which is based on sugarcane, base In cereal, based on fruit or based on the wine of American aloe, such as Rum (rum), Te Jila wine (tequila), mescal (mescal), whiskey (whiskey), brandy (brandy), gin tonic (gin) or combinations thereof.
As used herein, there is the Spirit of feature relevant to ripe Spirit is made to describe such wine, the wine Feature relevant to the wine according to industrial standard ageing is obtained by one or more chemical markers.For example, such mark Standard includes that ageing is more than 1,5,10,15,20,25 or 30 year a period of time in wooden barrel by wine.It is related to the Spirit for making ripe Feature may include taste, fragrance and alcoholic degree characteristic, feel as alcohol is sliding.
In history, use ethyl acetate concentration as the marker of ageing progress, wherein higher amount indicates longer wine The ripe time.But ethyl acetate itself is undesirable, and is added to a kind of mouthfeel for being equivalent to paint thinner and fragrance.This Outside, do not have usually better than ageing wine, Spirit by higher rating sample quite or in some cases with ageing wine There is high ethyl acetate concentration.Using modern technologies, the chemical composition for the wine being of great rarity can analyze.By using the number According to can choose chemical marker as the model for making ripe wine., it is surprising that these chemical markers are relative to acetic acid Ethyl ester concentration determines that the traditional measurement in time has advantage.Specifically, for modeling purpose, chemical marker as described herein is Preferably, because being different from ethyl acetate, these chemical markers facilitate desired flavor characteristics.
Surprisingly, it was found that one group of chemical marker can be associated with the flavor characteristic for making ripe wine, regardless of How is ethyl acetate concentration.Further, it is found that making the method that ripe period reduces ethyl acetate concentration.Because of ethyl acetate Mouthfeel be undesirable, so the discovery improve by this method manufacture wine flavor characteristics.In an embodiment In, ethyl acetate concentration decreases below the concentration of about 200,000 μ g/L.In another embodiment, ethyl acetate concentration In the range of about 50,000 μ g/L to about 170,000 μ g/L.
