Long-term aging of Yakju, a traditional Korean liquor made of rice and Nuruk (a fermentation agent), causes browning and odor and flavor development. This study investigated the effects of heat-treated Nuruk (50–80 °C, 30 min) on Yakju quality. The saccharogenic powers and glucoamylase, α-amylase, and carboxypeptidase activities were similar in non-heat-treated Nuruk and that treated at 50 °C. However, acidic protease and alcohol dehydrogenase decreased above 50 °C. The content of nitrogen-containing compounds was inversely proportional to the heat-treatment temperature. Compounds that cause off-flavors decreased at 50–60 °C, but increased at 70–80 °C, whereas compounds that provide fragrance increased at 50–60 °C. Sensory evaluation indicated that bad taste attributes were higher in Yakju produced using non-heat-treated Nuruk. Therefore, heat treatment of Nuruk at 50 °C can be adopted as a method for improving Yakju quality, as enzymatic activities that affect color, aroma, and taste are regulated.
