Chemosensory Characteristics of Brandies from Chinese Core Production Area and First Insights into Their Differences from Cognac.

ABSTRACT: This work aimed to compare the aroma characteristics of representative brandies with different grades from Yantai (one of the Chinese core production areas) and Cognac and to establish relationships between sensory descriptors and chemical composition. Descriptive analysis was performed with a trained panel to obtain the sensory profiles. Forty-three aroma-active compounds were quantified by four different methodologies. A prediction model on the basis of partial least squares analysis was performed to identify candidate compounds that were unique to a certain group of brandies. The result showed that brandies from Yantai could be distinguished from Cognac brandies on the basis of spicy, dried fruit, floral, and fruity-like aromas, which were associated with an aromatic balance between con
