2-Furfurylthiol was an important contributor to the flavor of traditional fermented foods including Baijiu. It is essential to increase 2-furfurylthiol concentration to improve the quality of Baijiu. This study aimed to enrich the content of 2-furfurylthiol in Chinese sesame-flavored Baijiu via two strains we isolated from Baijiu fermentation, Bacillus subtilis LBM 10019 and Bacillus vallismortis LBM 10020, which could respectively produce 56.31 mg/L and 42.81 mg/L l-cysteine, the precursor of 2-furfurylthiol, in sorghum extract. After inoculation of these two strains, the maximal relative abundance of Bacillus increased from 7.48% to 40.38%, the final content of l-cysteine increased by 101.44% in Baijiu fermentation. Moreover, the concentration of 2-furfurylthiol increased by 89.15% in the production. This work provides a novel strategy to improve the quality of Chinese sesame-flavored Baijiu.
