ABSTRACT:
A method of modifying the flavor of distilled spirits is provided. Crystalline fructose (optionally with crystalline dextrose) or aqueous solutions thereof are added to distilled spirits in minor amounts, e.g. less than 5% by weight, to modify the flavor thereof. The method is particularly applicable to distilled spirits containing natural flavor components, i.e. congeners, from distillation or maturation of the spirit. The addition of minor amounts of fructose serves to improve the palatability of the distilled spirit without overtly sweetening or undesirably masking the original flavor.
