Which flavor do YOU prefer? -- Like a fine wine, there is no right or wrong.... it is what you prefer that is the best! So why not try it all with one simple purchase? With Sweetwater's Syrup Sample Pack you can experience all three delicious color grades and decide for yourself which you prefer! You will receive a 100 mL bottle of the Golden Delicate, Amber Rich and Dark Robust.
GOLDEN
The first syrup of the maple season, Golden-Delicate Grade syrup is the mildest of all the syrups with a light, golden color and a flavor that is subtle with buttery hints of vanilla. Golden-Delicate Syrup is popular as an ice cream, fruit, oatmeal or yogurt topper and great for home confections or as a table syrup.
AMBER
Produced mid-season when the temperatures begin to warm, Amber-Rich Grade syrup is slightly darker than golden and is rich, smooth and full-bodied delivering the classic maple flavor. Amber-Rich Syrup is the best grade for all-around use in the kitchen and on the table; drizzle on pancakes; top fruit or ice cream, add to coffee or tea or even use it for cooking or preparing vinaigrettes. This is what most people think of when they think maple.
DARK
Produced when the days become warmer and longer, Dark-Robust Grade syrup is stronger and more intense than Amber-Rich. With a more caramelized maple flavor, Dark-Robust Syrup is popular for cooking and can replace brown sugar in any recipe. It is also perfect as a glaze for meats and vegetables, salad dressings or a variety of baked goods.
BOURBON BARREL AGED MAPLE SYRUP
When you choose the Four-Pack, we will add in one of our most popular products. Sweetwater's Maple combines two age-old traditions, bourbon and maple syrup. We begin with a charred, white-oak barrel that held bourbon for years. When the barrel is emptied, we fill it with our hand-crafted maple syrup. Over time the bourbon spirits from the barrel blend with the maple syrup to create a one-of-a-kind flavor; bourbon-barrel aged maple syrup! This syrup is produced annually in limited quantities and is a unique delight!
