Andong Sikhe in Korea was prepared and fermented at 5$^{\circ}C$ and the taste and flavor compounds were evaluated. Major flavor components were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer as camphene, sabinene, 1-(1, 5-dimethyl-4-hexyl)-4-methyl-benzene, alpha-zingibirene, farnesene, 2, 6-bis(1, 1-dimethylethyl)-4-metethyl-phenol, beta-sesquiphellandrene, calalene, tetradecanoic acid, and 9, 12-octadecanoic acid. The concentration of nonvolatile organic acid such as lactic acid, oxalic acid and citric acid were 18.10mg/100g, 1.04mg/100g and 1.37mg/100g, respectively, and those of other nonvolatile organic acid were a little. The pH and acidity of Andong Sikhe were 4.06 and 0.32 during fermentation and storage.
