Pure Ontario Maple Syrup - Available in 250 and 500 mL
Canada No. 1 Light
This is a very special product described by many as having a taste more like clover honey
than maple. Light syrup is produced only from sap runs during the first few days of the
season, and it is produced in comparatively small amounts. Taste notes are floral,
herbaceous, honey-like, with mouth filling sweetness and a hint of maple. This is achieved
in part by use of the reverse osmosis process for sap preparation, which reduces the
boiling time to ¼ the usual boiling time, and thereby preserves many of the volatile
components that impart the more exotic flavours. A delicate syrup enjoyed best straight up
and on light foods that dont overwhelm the delicate flavour of the syrup.
Canada No. 1 Medium
The most complex of the three varieties, combining taste characteristics of both Light and
Amber syrup. Medium syrup is produced from sap runs mid-way through the sugaring season,
and the darker colour is attributable in part to changes in tree physiology as the season
progresses. An excellent breakfast syrup for pancakes, waffles, french toast, and hot
cereals. For a delicious grown-up beverage, combine in a blender 2 ounces of medium maple
syrup with 2 ounces of Canadian whiskey, 2 ounces of table cream, and 1 cup of ice. Blend
to frozen daiquiri consistency and enjoy in moderation.
Canada No. 2 Amber
A traditional high quality maple syrup. Our amber syrup is produced from late season sap
runs. An excellent choice for those preferring a syrup with flavours of caramel, chewy
toffee, and sweet maple. The best choice for pairing with strongly flavoured foods or in
baked goods where the more delicate flavours of the light and medium syrups would be lost.
250 mL Bottle - $7.25
500 mL Bottle - $11.95
