摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new unrefined vinegar containing citric acid, and having high mineral content, especially high potassium content, and further to provide a muscovado fermented drink. SOLUTION: An alcohol fermentation is carried out by using a glucidic raw material in a weight ratio of muscovado to a malted rice regulated so as to be (2/1)-(1.1/1), and an alcohol is distilled off by subjecting the obtained unrefined sake to the distillation under a normal pressure or a reduced pressure. The obtained distillation residue is filtrated to provide the objective vinegar of the muscovado unrefined sake having =200 mg/100 ml content of the potassium. The muscovado fermented drink is obtained by regulating the components of the vinegar of the unrefined sake.
