TFA and sulfuric-acid hydrolysis give different neutral-sugar quantities and statistical contrasts. TFA did not show a significant new-C versus new-O total-sugar difference; sulfuric analysis did. Subsequent aging effects depend on assay and contrast. These are hydrolyzed alcohol-insoluble wood measurements, not ready-to-drink whiskey sweetness. The authors discuss incomplete TFA hydrolysis and acid-driven sugar degradation as methodological explanations.
