Maple Syrup 101
Understanding how pure maple syrup is made can help enhance your apprecation for our delicious product.
The Art of Maple Syrup Production
Step 1
Tapping the Trees
In early spring, we carefully select and tap our maple trees, collecting the precious sap that signals the start of the syrup-making process.
Step 2
Boiling the Sap
The collected sap is transported to our sugarhouse, where it is boiled down to concentrate its natural sweetness and transform it into syrup.
Step 3
Bottling the Syrup
Once the perfect density and sugar content is achieved, the syrup is filtered and bottled, ready to bring the taste of Wisconsin to your table.

Golden Color with Delicate Taste
Usually made at the beginning of the new maple season, this syrup was known once graded as Fancy. Subtle maple flavor is best appreciated when used on pancakes or waffles or paired with rich dairy items like yogurt or vanilla ice cream.  Try it over Greek yogurt or for a simple but elegant dessert, simply pour this grade of Vermont syrup over vanilla ice cream.Â
Amber Color with Rich Taste
Usually made about mid-season and often seems to be the most popular for all-around use. Full of characteristic maple flavor, this syrup is equally as good over waffles as it is in salad dressings, cocktails, or in a maple-sweetened barbecue sauce. If you’re only going to have one grade of Vermont maple syrup in your kitchen, make it Amber Color with Rich Taste.
Dark Color with Robust Taste
As the maple season progresses, the syrup darkens in color and develops a more robust maple flavor. Good for all around use, its hearty flavor is a great choice for all kinds of recipes. Pour over baked apples or squash, use as a glaze for meats and vegetables, or sweeten baked goods. This grade pairs well with smoky and spicy flavors like chipotle peppers, sriracha, or bourbon.
Very Dark Color with Strong Taste
Produced at the end of the season, it’s perfect for cooking and baking. When you need a strong maple flavor in a bread or cookie, ice cream, or barbecue sauce, this is the grade of choice.
