Rice-aroma baijiu is a clear spirit distilled from rice fermented with a rice-flour qu. The steamed rice first saccharifies as a solid for a day or two, then water is added and the mash ferments as a semi-liquid for about 8–15 days before it is distilled. It is known for a light, honey-like aroma.

At a glance
Rice-aroma baijiu is a clear spirit distilled from rice fermented with a rice-flour qu. The steamed rice first saccharifies as a solid for a day or two, then water is added and the mash ferments as a semi-liquid for about 8–15 days before it is distilled. It is known for a light, honey-like aroma. Made in 5 steps over 12 days – 20 days. The longest step, add water and ferment as a semi-liquid, takes 8–15 days (Wang H. et al. 2023) and runs at 27–29 °C (Wang H. et al. 2023). Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomycopsis do most of the fermenting.
Rice-aroma baijiu saccharifies the rice as a solid and then ferments it with added water as a semi-liquid, a combination that sets it apart from sauce-, light- and strong-aroma baijiu. Its fermentation is short, about 8–15 days, and it is started with a small rice-flour qu.

Safety
This is a distilled spirit, so it is strong alcohol. Wang et al. (2023) write that rice-aroma baijiu holds more higher alcohols than the other main aroma types, and that excess higher alcohols cause headache and hangover. Li et al. (2025) write that appropriate acidity in the mash inhibits harmful bacteria and harmful substances.
