The physicochemical characteristics and sensory properties of Jinyangju, a Korean traditional rice wine brewed using unique glutinous rice, were investigated over the following range of fermentation temperatures: 10, 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$. The pH value, total acidity, total sugar content, alcohol content and color value of the Jinyangju were determined after the 2-week fermentation, followed by sensory evaluation of the final product. After fermentation for 2 weeks at temperatures of 10, 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$, the final pH values were 3.70, 3.73, 3.40 and 3.26, the final total acidities were 1.04, 1.01, 1.39 and 1.72%, the final total sugar contents were 6.43, 6.22, 5.91 and 5.53% and the final alcohol contents were 14.20, 14.17, 14.83 and 15.40%, respectively. The color value of the Jinyangju was not different among the samples. In conclusion, the Jinyangju fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ showed the highest values in such sensory properties as color, flavor and odor, and was judged in the sensory evaluation to be the overall favorite.

The quality and antioxidant activity properties of Jinyangju, Korean traditional rice wine made with different additions of Citrus junos peel (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%) were investigated. The pH and the total sugar content of the Jinyangju decreased, whereas the total acidity and alcohol content increased with greater additions of Citrus junos peel. The color L-value increased and the color a- and b-values decreased with increasing amounts of Citrus junos peel. The DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity increased with the addition of Citrus junos peel. The highest overall acceptability values in the sensory test for color, flavor, taste, and overall favorite were 4.2, 4.9, 5.6, 5.0, and 3.9, respectively, with the addition of 20% Citrus junos peel.

The physicochemical characteristics and sensory properties of Jinyangju were investigated at different degrees of milling (DOM; 0, 5, 7, and 10%) of waxy glutinous rice after 2 weeks of fermentation. The final pH values were 3.50, 3.84, 4.16, and 4.21 at the DOMs of 0, 5, 7, and 10%, respectively. The final total acidities were 1.21, 1.16, 0.94, and 0.91%; final total sugar contents were 6.38, 6.51, 5.54 and 5.40%; and final alcohol contents were 14.50, 14.50, 15.50, and 15.40%, respectively. Hunter L-value of the DOM 5% rice was lower those of the DOM 7% and 10% rice, but its Hunter b-value was higher than those of the DOM 7% and 10% rice. However, Hunter a-value of the Jinyangju were not significantly different among the samples (p>0.05) Hunter L-value. The Jinyangju made with the DOM 7% rice showed the highest overall sensory preference.

Jinyangju, Korean rice wine, has been traditionally brewed using unique glutinous rice produced only in Haenam, Korea. Because this glutinous rice is expensive, possibility of partial replacement by lower costing non-waxy rice to make Jinyangju was investigated. Both chemical and sensory properties of the rice wine made from different levels of non-waxy rice replacement were determined. Total acidity, pH, total sugar content, and alcohol content of rice wines made with varying replacement levels of non-waxy rice (0, 30, 50, and 70%) were respectively as follows: 1.02, 0.98, 1.1, and 1.1%; 3.76, 3.83, 3.64, and 3.58; 6.22, 6.31, 4.58, and 4.73%; 14.2, 14.8, 15.6, and 15,2%. Highest overall acceptabilities in sensory test including color, flavor, odor, and overall favorite were 4.45, 4.73, 4.45, and 3.55, respectively, at 30% non-waxy rice replacement.
