Ten types of farm-made brewing vinegars were collected and four high acetic acid-producing strains (CV1, CV3, CV5, and CV6) were isolated. Among them strain CV1, exhibiting highly alcohol-resistant and acetic acid-producing properties, was selected and its taxonomic properties were investigated by phenotypic (particularly chemotaxonomic) characterization and phylogenetic inference based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. On SM broth agar, cells of strain CV1 were gram-stainingnegative and formed pale white colonies with smooth to rough surfaces. Strain CV1 produced acetate from ethanol and was resistant to up to 8% (v/v) ethanol in LM broth. Strain CV1 had a G+C content of 61.0 mol%, contained meso-DAP as the cell wall amino acid, and possessed Q-10 as the major ubiquinone. A comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain CV1 was most closely related to Gluconacetobacter saccharivorans (≥99.0% identity). In liquid media, the optimum growth conditions for acetic acid production were 30℃ and pH >3.0 and strain CV1 produced 9.3% and 8.4% acetic acids from 10% and 9% alcohol concentrations, respectively.

To produce sweet liquor without artificial sweeteners, 8 traditional rice pre-treatment methods (juk, beombeok, seolgitteok, gumeongtteok, mulsongpyeon, injeolmi, gaetteok, and godubap) were analyzed in this study. The formation of sugars with the help of ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\beta}$-amylase, and glucoamylase using nuruk as a substrate has been previously confirmed. During the early stages of the pre-treatment processes, the amount of maltose produced (in descending order of its concentration) by ${\alpha}$-amylase was observed to be as follows: gaetteok > seolgitteok > beombeok > mulsongpyeon > juk > injeolmi > gumeongtteok > godubap. However, changes in maltose concentrations with respect to the pre-treatment processes after 48 hours were observed to be as follows: injeolmi > beombeok = godubap > gumeongtteok > gaetteok = mulsongpyeon > seolgitteok > juk. Maltose produced using either ${\alpha}$-amylase or ${\beta}$-amylase showed similar results. Glucoamylase produced 10 mg/ml of glucose during the godubap process, which was the highest amount of glucose among all the methods. Moreover, when ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\beta}$-amylase, and glucoamylase were used concurrently, glucoamylase increased glucose production in the later stages. Therefore, the possibility of producing sweet liquor without employing artificial sweeteners was confirmed, even if the amount of sugar in the liquor varied with the pre-treatment process.

The characteristics of used wine yeast strains were as follows, S6U showed low fermentation speed than those of other yeast strains, but this strain fermented completely later. The wine fermented by W-3 was very low contents of total acid, 0.75% and the ones fermented by UCD530 and AC- contained much extract, 3.26 mg/L and 3.22 mg/L respectively. The wine fermented by CEG and CS2 were predominant in yellowness, and EC1118 produced large amount of acetaldehyde, 49.9 mg/L than those of other strains. EC1118 and CY3079 displayed low methylene blue dyeing ratio, below 15%, meaning high alcohol tolerance yeast. UCD530 produced extremely high contents of glycerol, succinate and lactate compared with other strains. These properties revealed that UCD530 was a typical Saccharomyces bayanus species. The main organic acids produced by wine yeasts were pyruvate, lactate, succinate and acetate. The concentration of acetate in experimental wine could be divided into two parts, one group had concentration below 170 mg/L (UCD530, EC1118, AC-, CY3079, W-3), and the other had concentration up to 350 mg/L (S6U, CEG, CS2).
