Abstract

The present invention relates to an agent for improving aftertaste of alcoholic beverages comprising allulose-containing saccharides, and a method for improving aftertaste of alcoholic beverages using allulose.

Description

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention relates to an agent for improving an aftertaste of an alcoholic beverage, which includes allulose-containing saccharides, and a method of improving an aftertaste of an alcoholic beverage using allulose.
    • DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART
  • Ethanol (i.e., ethyl alcohol) contained in foods has an unpleasant flavor such as unique alcohol smell or bitterness. Such an unpleasant flavor becomes stronger with increasing alcohol concentration. Particularly, in the case of distilled alcoholic beverage having a high alcohol concentration, such as soju or rum, increase in sales is slowing down due to the unpleasant flavor thereof. Recent development of soju with low alcohol content or fruit soju with added flavor and increase in sales volume represents changes in preference of consumers who avoid the strong bitterness and smell of alcohol.
  • There has been proposed a method of using a glycoside-based sweetener such as steviol glycoside or enzyme-treated stevia instead of a sugar-based sweetener such as sucrose or fructose in order to reduce the flavor of soju and to mask a bitterness and tangy taste thereof (Korean Patent No. 10-1320082). However, such a glycoside-based sweetener has poor sensory properties such as delayed sweetness, unique bitterness, or foreign body sensation.
  • In addition, there has been proposed a method of applying allulose to beer or the like (Japanese Patent No. 5764308). However, in this method, allulose is used to maintain or improve a flavor of raw materials, and use of allulose to suppress a smell and bitterness unique to alcohols has not been proposed yet.
  • The present inventors have made efforts to reduce smell and bitterness of alcohol of alcoholic foods. As a result, the present inventors found that addition of allulose can mask the smell and bitterness of alcohol for a given amount of alcohol, and thus completed the present invention.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples. However, it should be noted that these examples are provided for illustration only and should not be construed in any way as limiting the invention. In addition, these examples are provided for more complete understanding of the present invention by one of ordinary skill in the art.
    • Experimental Example 1: Preparation and Quality Analysis of Diluted Soju
  • Generally, alcoholic beverages have varying alcohol contents depending upon the kind and manufacturing method thereof. Beer has an alcohol content of 4 vol % to 12 vol % (generally 5 vol %), wine has an alcohol content of 6 vol % to 12 vol % (generally 8 vol %), Sake has an alcohol content of 8 vol % to 15 vol % (generally 13 vol %), and soju has an alcohol content of 14 vol % to 20 vol % (generally 18 vol %). For an alcoholic beverage having an alcohol content of less than 6 wt %, since an unpleasant flavor of alcohol is not significant, diluted soju having an alcohol content of 8.0% or more was prepared to check change in quality due to addition of allulose.
  • (1) Preparation of Diluted Soju
  • Diluted soju samples of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and Examples 1 to 3 were prepared as follows. First, purified water was added to a rectified spirit having an alcohol concentration of 95 vol %, thereby preparing 10 L of a primarily diluted rectified spirit having an alcohol concentration of 50 vol %. Then, activated carbon powder was mixed with the primarily diluted rectified spirit, followed by aging and deodorization for 1 to 3 hours, and then the resulting mixture was clarified using a filter containing diatomaceous earth (SELECT® A20, BEGEROW Co.). Then, sucrose (purity: 98 wt % or more, White Sucrose, CJ Cheiljedang) or allulose (crystal allulose, purity: 98 wt % or more, CJ Cheiljedang) was mixed with the clarified mixture in amounts as listed in Table 1, followed by adding purified water, thereby preparing 1 L of a secondarily diluted rectified spirit. Then, the secondarily diluted rectified spirit was clarified in the same manner as the primarily diluted rectified spirit.
  • In addition, purified water was added to the clarified primarily diluted rectified spirit to dilute the sprit to alcohol concentrations as listed in Table 2, thereby preparing Sensory Comparison Examples for sensory evaluation.

  • (2) Sensory Evaluation
  • Sensory evaluation was carried out by 15 trained panelists. Here, the panelists were provided with the standard products as Sensory Comparison Examples (Table 2) and trained to be fully aware of an unpleasant bitterness and smell inherent to alcohol and compare intensity of the bitterness and smell to match a randomly offered diluted soju sample to the alcohol concentration thereof.
  • Specifically, sensory evaluation was carried out through the following procedure. First, the panelists were placed in separate rooms, respectively, and then provided with Sensory Comparison Examples to be aware of the bitterness and smell inherent to alcohol, once more, prior to being provided with the samples of Examples and Comparative Examples. Thereafter, the samples of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, each labelled with a three-digit random number, were provided in a transparent cup one by one in a double-blind fashion. During evaluation, each of the panelists was instructed to hold the sample in his/her mouth to taste the sample before spitting the sample out, to be prevented from becoming intoxicated due to excessive intake. In addition, after evaluation of each sample, the panelists were allowed to rinse their mouths with cooked rice and water to prepare for evaluation of the next sample. Each of the trained panelists evaluated intensity of the smell and bitterness of alcohol of each of the samples of Examples and Comparative Examples on a 9-point scale (as shown in Table 2) with reference to Sensory Comparison Examples.
  • For evaluation of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, evaluation of Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, and evaluation of Example 3 and Comparative Example 3, Sensory Comparison Examples A1 to A5, Sensory Comparison Examples B1 to B5, and Sensory Comparison Examples C1 to C5 were provided, respectively. In addition, after each evaluation, the panelists were allowed to rest for at least 12 to 24 hours to avoid confusion due to excessive intake.
  • For the samples of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the samples of Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, and the samples of Example 3 and Comparative Example 3, scores of intensity of the smell or bitterness of alcohol in sensory evaluation (hereinafter, “sensory scores”) were converted into alcohol concentration according to Equation 1, Equation 2, and Equation 3, respectively, thereby calculating perceived alcohol concentrations, which in turn were compared with the actual alcohol concentrations to confirm reduction effects in smell and bitterness of alcohol.

  • Perceived alcohol concentration (%)=(0.005×sensory score+0.045)×100  <Equation 1>

  • Perceived alcohol concentration (%)=(0.005×sensory score+0.095)×100  <Equation 2>

  • Perceived alcohol concentration (%)=(0.005×sensory score+0.145)×100  <Equation 3>
  • Statistical analysis was performed using SAS 9.1 program (SAS Inc., Cary, N.C., USA), and sensory evaluation results were analyzed by t-test method. All analysis results were approved at a significance level of p<0.05.
  • As a result, it was confirmed that the samples of Examples had a perceived alcohol concentration (i.e., intensity of smell and bitterness of alcohol) that is about 0.6% to 0.8% lower than the actual alcohol concentration. In addition, it could be seen that the samples of Examples 1 to 3 containing allulose exhibited a statistically significant decrease (p<0.05) in smell and bitterness of alcohol, as compared with those of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 containing the same amount of saccharides.

    • Experimental Example 2: Preparation and Quality Analysis of Diluted Soju Having Different Saccharide Concentrations
  • In order to confirm saccharide concentration-dependent reduction effects in smell and bitterness of alcohol, changes in quality of diluted soju with varying amount of added allulose were checked for a given alcohol concentration. Here, the alcohol concentration was set to 18%, which is an alcohol concentration of the most typical diluted soju in Korea.
  • (1) Preparation of Diluted Soju Having Different Saccharide Concentrations
  • Samples of Comparative Examples 4 to 8, samples of Examples 4 to 8, and Sensory Comparison Examples D1 to D5 were prepared in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1 except that amounts of saccharides were changed as listed in Tables 5 and 6.

  • (2) Sensory Evaluation
  • Sensory evaluation of Examples 4 to 8 and Comparative Examples 4 to 8 was performed in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1. Sensory scores were converted into alcohol concentration according to Equation 3, thereby calculating perceived alcohol concentrations, which, in turn, were compared with the actual alcohol concentrations, respectively, to confirm reduction effects in smell and bitterness of alcohol. Statistical analysis was performed using SAS 9.1 program (SAS Inc., Cary, N.C., USA), and sensory evaluation results were analyzed by t-test method.
  • As a result, it was confirmed that the samples of Examples 4 to 7 having an allulose content of 0.1% to 3.0% exhibited a statistically significant decrease in alcohol bitterness, as compared with those of Comparative Examples containing the same amount of sucrose, and the samples of Examples 5 to 7 having an allulose content of 0.3% to 3.0% exhibited a statistically significant decrease in alcohol smell, as compared with those of Comparative Examples (Table 7, FIGS. 1 and 2).
  • In addition, it was confirmed entirely that bitterness of alcohol decreased due to increase in sweetness with increasing concentration of sucrose or allulose. However, considering that the sweetness intensity of allulose is about 70% that of sucrose, it can be seen that reduction effects in smell and bitterness of alcohol is not due to simply sweetness enhancement by addition of saccharides but due to efficacy of allulose.
