Whiskey lactone is a chemical compound that is also chemically known as 2,3-butanediol lacone.

Quality:

Whiskey lactone is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a unique aroma similar to the flavor of whiskey. It is less soluble than water at room temperature, but is easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.

Whisky lactones are mainly chemically synthesized. The common preparation method is to obtain whiskey lactones by esterification of 2,3-butanediol and acetic anhydride under reaction conditions.

Safety Information: Whiskey lactones are generally considered safe for humans, but may cause digestive reactions such as stomach upset when ingested in excess. It is necessary to control the appropriate amount during use and avoid excessive use. For people with allergies, there is a possibility of allergic reactions, so an appropriate allergy test should be performed before use.
