Crown Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged Organic Maple Syrup

Short Description

Pure maple syrup goes well with so many different flavors, and one of the most delectable pairings is maple and bourbon. Crown Maple celebrates this exquisite combination with their Limited Edition Bourbon Barrel Aged syrup. First, pure organic maple syrup is aged in barrels to absorb the flavor of bourbon. Then it is bottled in their state-of-the-art sugarhouse in Dover Plains, New York. The elegant packaging of this unique syrup is designed to reflect the superb quality of the product within, described in The Wall Street Journal as "soul-stirring". Bourbon maple syrup can be enjoyed in many ways. Naturally, the simplest uses are to pour it straight over waffles, ice cream, peaches or oatmeal, and recipe ideas include Maple Bourbon Fruit Salsa, Maple Bourbon Grilled Pineapple, Maple Bourbon Bacon, and Maple Bourbon Mustard. Crown Maple Syrup is crafted in Dutchess County, New York exclusively from the sap produced by 25,000 majestic sugar and red maple trees on a 800-acre sustainably managed farm. These varieties produce the sweetest sap on the planet and, combined with the perfect climate of the Hudson River Valley, make it possible for Crown Maple to produce their regal syrup. There are typically only about 20 prime sap days in a season and they generally begin in mid-February when temperatures in the Hudson Valley climb into the 40s during the day and dip to below freezing at night. This temperature fluctuation creates pressure inside the maples that naturally forces out the sap. Crown uses a unique Reverse Osmosis unit - the only one of its kind in the US - that quickly and efficiently removes 90 percent of the water and produces a concentrate with the precise sugar content required for the next stage of their process. Using reverse osmosis to remove most of the water is far superior because it protects the delicate sap from prolonged exposure to heat which causes burning and excess carmelization.
