Abstract

Agricultural distillates (raw spirits) are alcoholic liquids obtained through distillation (preceded by alcoholic fermentation) of specific agricultural products that do not have the properties of ethyl alcohol or a spirit, but still retain the aroma and taste of the raw ingredients used. This review is a brief overview of agricultural distillates and of some methods commonly used (GC-MS, GC-FID, GC-O, electronic nose) for performing quality assessments and for determining the composition and botanical origins of the raw spirits.
