Authenticity of fermented beverages

  • Chapter

Abstract

The concept of authenticity of a particular food or beverage can usually be defined as conformity to a standard. This standard may arise from tradition, laws, reference compounds, industrial purchase specifications or other forms of written or non-written rules and/or traditions defining what a product is supposed to be in terms of origin, raw materials used, manufacturing process, aging, etc. A product is often non-authentic because inferior ingredients are used to cut production costs and increase profits.
