What is the taste of distiller's yeast?

Daqu is slightly sweet and contains "Quzi flavor".

Description: The original distiller's yeast was moldy or germinated grain, and people improved it to make it suitable for wine making. Due to the different raw materials and production methods, the natural conditions in different producing areas are different, but because they are mainly brewed from grains such as malt, and these grains contain a lot of sugar, after a series of reactions to produce alcohol, a small amount of glucose will be generated at the same time, which makes the koji contain a small amount of sweetness. "Quzixiang" refers to the special fragrance produced by grain fermentation.
