酱香型白酒的工艺特点有哪些呢英语

Here are the key process characteristics of Jiangxiang-style (Sauce-Aroma) Baijiu in English:

1. High-Temperature Daqu Production

  • The starter culture (Daqu) is made from wheat and fermented at high temperatures (60–65°C). This promotes thermophilic microbes, creating complex enzymes and aromatic precursors.
  • 2. Sorghum as the Sole Raw Material

  • Only locally grown red sorghum (e.g., Hongyingzi variety) is used, featuring thick husks and high starch content, ideal for multiple fermentation cycles.
  • 3. "Sand" Process (重阳下沙, Chongyang Xiasha)

  • Fermentation starts during the Chongyang Festival (9th day of the 9th lunar month). Crushed sorghum ("sand") is soaked, steamed, and mixed with Daqu in ritualistic cycles.
  • 4. Stack Fermentation (堆积发酵)

  • After steaming, the grain is piled into mounds for 2–3 days. This open-air "stacking" allows natural inoculation of airborne microbes, boosting flavor complexity.
  • 5. Pit Fermentation in Stone Cellars

  • Fermentation occurs in stone-lined pits (unlike mud pits for Luzhou-style). The porous stone retains heat and humidity while limiting soil microbes.
  • 6. Multiple Rounds of Fermentation & Distillation

  • The process repeats 8–9 times over a year. Each cycle includes:
  • Fermentation (1 month per pit cycle)
  • Distillation to extract liquor
  • Reusing the grain residue (zao) with new sorghum.
  • 7. High-Temperature Techniques

  • High-temperature steaming (100°C+) to sterilize grain and extract aromatics.
  • High-temperature distillation to concentrate volatile compounds.
  • 8. Segmented Aging & Blending

  • Newly distilled liquor is aged ≥3 years in ceramic jars. Master blenders mix liquors from different cycles (e.g., "sweet," "bitter," "pungent" batches) to achieve balance.
  • 9. Seasonal Production Rhythm

  • Critical steps align with seasons:
  • Daqu made in summer (high temps favor microbial diversity).
  • Fermentation starts in autumn (cooler temps stabilize early fermentation).
  • 10. Minimal Water Addition

  • Unlike other Baijiu styles, water is added only during Daqu preparation and initial grain soaking, preserving concentrated flavors.
  • Unique Feature: The repetitive "sand" cycles and microbial succession create signature sauce-like aromas (soy sauce, caramel, roasted nuts) with over 1,000 trace flavor compounds.

    Examples: Moutai, Langjiu, Xijiu.
