Grade A Dark Color, Robust Taste (formerly known as Grade B) organic maple syrup is produced as the days become warmer and longer in sugaring season. Both the color and the maple flavor are a bit stronger and more intense than the Amber Color, Rich Taste. The sugar content of the sap has dropped by now so, it takes more sap to make a gallon of syrup; hence the darker color and stronger flavors. This versatile grade is great as a topping and for cooking. Its strong maple flavor also lends itself to meat glazes, cooking recipes, and on top of waffles, pancakes, or oatmeal. for seven generations, the Coombs family has farmed and harvested without pesticides and chemicals, making organic maple healthier for the forest, healthier for the environment, and healthier for consumers.
