Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The metal-supported zeolite for alcoholic beverages of the present invention is a zeolite that carries a metal component, wherein the metal component is silver, and the zeolite is at least one selected from a beta-type one and a Y-type one. The metal-supported zeolite is for removing unwanted components contained in alcoholic beverages.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for reducing a storage period during production of an alcoholic beverage, comprising: purifying an alcoholic composition by removing an unwanted component, wherein the unwanted component is at least one selected from the group consisting of dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide, and dimethyl trisulfide, the unwanted component is removed by a metal-supported zeolite comprising silver supported on a zeolite, and the zeolite is at least one selected from the group consisting of a beta-type zeolite and a Y-type zeolite. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the silver supported on the zeolite is 5% by mass to 25% by mass relative to the total amount of the metal-supported zeolite. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alcoholic beverage is a distilled alcoholic beverage. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alcoholic beverage is a brewed alcoholic beverage. 5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purifying is performed such that an alcohol, a fusel, and an ester are maintained in the alcoholic composition. 6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purifying is performed by contacting the alcoholic composition with the metal-supported zeolite. 7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the purifying is performed by passing the alcoholic composition through a metal-supported zeolite at a liquid-hourly space velocity (LHSV) of from 0.1 h −1 to 100 −1 . 8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: storing the purified alcoholic composition for maturation. 9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the purified alcoholic composition is stored in a barrel. 10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the alcoholic composition is raw whiskey, and the alcoholic beverage is whiskey.
