梅酒の香気成分について, 減圧水蒸気蒸留法とヘッドスペース法で得られたにおい濃縮物を用い, GC-MS によって成分の同定, 定量を行った. また 1, 2, および 5 年間貯蔵した試料について貯蔵中の香気成分の変化を研究した.その結果, 減圧水蒸気蒸留法ではアルデヒド類, 酸類, アルコール類, エステル類などを含めて 38 成分, ヘッドスペース法では減圧水蒸気蒸留では認められなかった低沸点成分 6 種を含めて 22 成分を同定, 定量した. 成分の数は貯蔵に伴って増加し, とくにエステル類は成分の数, 含有量ともに顕著に増加した. これは貯蔵中に梅の実中の有機酸が順次溶出され, 多量に存在するエタノールとエステルを作るものと考えられ、た. 最も含量の多い成分は benzaldehyde であったが, その含有量は貯蔵中に顕著に減少し, 同時に benzoic acid, 化を受け, さらにエステル, アセタールへと変化するものと考えられた.以上により, 梅酒の香気成分は, はじめ比較的単純な組成であったものが貯蔵により複雑な組成となり, マイルドな風味に変化すると考えられた.官能検査の結果もこの推定と一致した.

The aroma substances in Umeshu (Japanese apricot liqueur) obtained by steam distillation under reduced pressure and from the head-space gas were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The results obtained from liqueur stored for 1, 2 and 5 years were compared to evaluate the change in the aroma composition during storage. Thirty-eight components involving aldehydes, acids, alcohols and esters were identified and determined from the aroma concentrate obtained by steam distillation under reduced pressure, and 22 components were identified in the head-space gas. The head-space gas contained 6 low-boiling-point components which were not detected in the steam-distilled samples, and these components seemed important for evaluating the aroma of Umeshu. The number of components increased with storage, esters in particular increasing markedly in their kind and content. This indicates that the organic acids in Ume fruit were gradually extracted during storage and formed various esters by combining with ethanol that was present in a large amount. Benzaldehyde was the component present in the largest amount, which declined markedly during storage concomitantly with an increase in the amount of benzoic acid, its ester and acetals. This indicates that benzaldehyde was changed into acetals or oxidized to benzoic acid and then to its esters. These results suggest that the aroma substances in Umeshu, which were at first relatively simple in their composition, were changed to a more complex composition during storage. This could be responsible to the flavor of Umeshu becoming mild and characteristic. The results of sensory tests support this suggestion.
