DISTILAMAX TQ is a fructophilic yeast selected for fermentation of fruit and agave. It has been selected especially for its ability to ferment glucose and fructose in high-stress conditions; this allows a good implementation in the food industry, resulting in fermentation with low residual sugars and high ethanol content. DISTILAMAX TQ displays good temperature tolerance and a short lag phase which limits the development of wild microorganisms. It is recommended for use in the food industry. At low-temperature fermentation with the right nutrition, DISTILAMAX TQ produces fruity and floral aromatic profiles, which are well-suited for the food industry such as increasing complexity and fruity characters.
