Maple syrup is perhaps one of North America’s greatest exports. For those enthusiasts of nature’s deliciously sticky, amber delicacy, Runamok Maple offers a set of barrel-aged maple syrups to get taste buds salivating.
Runamok Maple is based in northern Vermont, amongst the slopes of Mount Mansfield’s glorious tree-lined acres, so they know a thing or two about tapping trees. The team taps more than 80,000 trees for its distinctive maple syrup. During the sugaring season, the depth and flavor of the syrup change with moisture, temperature, and natural processes.
Runamok Maple’s barrel-aged maple syrup is one of the company’s most unique endeavors. They employ recently dredged bourbon, whiskey, rum, and gin barrels from local distillers to age each of their best maple syrups. For up to a year the syrups soak in the barrels, allowing the chosen spirit to infuse its flavor into the signature treat. What results is a delicious and indulgent product of rich bold flavors that pick up on the tones of the spirits without the alcohol content.
Whether you’ve chosen the Bourbon Barrel-Aged, Whiskey Barrel-Aged, Rum Barrel-Aged, or Tom Cat Gin Barrel-Aged Maple Syrups you’ll be delighted to drizzle them over pancakes, ice cream, fruit, or waffles. Since each of the syrups is certified organic by Vermont Organic Farmers and come from woods that have been certified as bird-friendly by Audubon Vermont, you can feel good about eating it, too.
